I created a snapshot and subsequent clone of a zfs volume. But now i 'm not 
able to remove the snapshot it gives me following error 

zfs destroy newpool/ldom2/zdi...@bootimg
cannot destroy 'newpool/ldom2/zdi...@bootimg': snapshot has dependent clones
use '-R' to destroy the following datasets:
newpool/ldom2/zdisk0

and if i promote the clone then the original volume becomes the dependent clone 
, is there a way to destroy just the snapshot leaving the clone and original 
volume intact ?
