Better error messages when Fuse fails to mount

[cleichner]

Right now it says "File not found"

It should say "please create a mount point for IPFS" (or something along those lines)

Using ipfs1, I get the following when I remove /ipfs and /ipns:

$ ipfs mount
mounting ipfs at /ipfs
mounting ipns at /ipns
ipfs mount: fusermount: "fusermount: failed to access mountpoint /ipfs: No such file or directory\n", exit status 1

Is this what you are talking about?

By the way, using ipfs2 I get:

$ ipfs mount   
20:35:29.733 ERROR      mount: %s mount: %s/ipfsfusermount: "fusermount: failed to access mountpoint /ipfs: No such file or directory\n", exit status 1 mount.go:89
20:35:29.734 ERROR      mount: %s mount: %s/ipnsfusermount: "fusermount: failed to access mountpoint /ipns: No such file or directory\n", exit status 1 mount.go:89
IPFS mounted at: /ipfs
IPNS mounted at: /ipns

"IPFS mounted at: /ipfs" and "IPNS mounted at: /ipns" should probably not be there.

Yes, I think this is the message @cleichner reported, though on mac, OSX fuse says "File not found"

Also when using ipfs2, when the mount fails the exit code is still 0.

Closing this issue for now, the error messages have improved a lot since this issue was open, let us know if it still needs work.
