And it worked like a charm. Which made me wonder why I was able to mount on a 
non-empty mount point (assuming it was non-empty!). Turns out I only had the 
parm set to warning, not to fail. And sure enough, there was a message that I 
mounted on a non-empty mount point.

That should not be a problem. I guess the only thing that is supposed to be in 
there is the /data directory.

I should have done that instead of checking SMPE :-(

Thanks, David!
