After being informed by the folks in #freebsd that the root_device, when
booted in single-user mode, is supposed to be read-write, I have a
question..  For some reason, when booting the kernel with the -s option
(therefore booting single-user) my root_device is mounted as read-only.  I
can't figure out why...any idea what's wrong?
