check your securelevel
man securelevel
2 Highly secure mode - same as secure mode, plus disks may not be
opened for writing (except by mount(2)) whether mounted or not.
This level precludes tampering with filesystems by unmounting
them,
but also inhibits running newfs(8) while the system is multi-user.
