When in single user mode:

	mount -u -o rw /

and then

	mount -a -t ufs

When you then type

	mount

you should see
	/
	/var
	/usr
mounted. When you then exit from single user mode it should boot.

You are sure you have an up to date kernel? This sounds very much like
you have an up to date userland but an old kernel. Block devices have
been removed from the kernel some weeks ago.
