[SOLVED] Failed to mount ZFS onto /mnt

I don't know or have any idea what is going on anymore. The way how I use to create zpools which is literally following the arch wiki guide, and then mounting it to /mnt does not work for me for some reason. I would unlock my luks, import my pool, mount my root, and usually that works.
For some reason, it is not mounting to /mnt and whenever I try using pacstrap, it will fail, because it is copying to the iso itself, and not the pool. Here is my datasets for zroot:

As you can see it is mounted as I just ran zfs mount zroot/ROOT/default

And here is the result of running df -h /mnt:

As you can see, it was not mounted onto /mnt for some reason.

Figured out the issue I was having. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Instal … nux_on_ZFS A certain section in the wiki needs to be updated or needs more clarity.
