Mike, your initial complaint was a message that said something was already
mounted there. The result of you running the mount command showed you what
that was. And the first paragraph of the man page says that if you go
ahead and mount something there any WS at that what was there before
becomes inn accessible and that permissions for the directory get changed
as well.
So your entire question has been answered and the way to fix it is clear.
Change your mount point for those partitions and all will be golden. What
could possibly still be your question?
