The regular mount/umount commands can only be used if you have the
filesystems present in /etc/vfstab. To create a zfs filesystem with
the idea of using mount/umount you must specify 'mountpoint=legacy'.

Now you can 'mount /d/d5' ... as per regular ufs.

Zpools don't need mountpoints ... ie 'mountpoint=none' won't mount the
pool. Which means you can mount the zfs pool only AND mount it where
you want by using 'set mountpoint=/d/d6'.
