[indiana-discuss] How to deal with /opt folder?

[Evan Layton]

It's likely that the mountpoint got messed up while these mounts were failing 
due to /opt not being empty. It's possible that repeated mounting and unmounting 
of the BE could have caused this. To fix the issue try the following steps:

if rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-8/opt is not currently mounted:
zfs set mountpoint=/opt rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-8/opt
zfs mount rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-8/opt

if rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-8/opt is mounted you'll need to unmount it before 
cleaning up the mountpoint property using the commands listed above.
