> How I can use SOFTUPDATES on it ? Some times ago it worked to something like :

Reboot it to single user mode. / is now mounted read-only. You can use
tunefs to enable soft updates on it. Now type "reboot". It should come
up with soft updates still enabled. If you exit the shell and go
multi-user without rebooting, it comes up with soft updates still
disabled.
