Unexpectedly, /etc  is empty and it became /etc~

I tried "mv /etc~  /etc", but the file system is read-only.

I booted as a single user and "mount -u -o rw/", but the message says
"wd0s1a on / (ufs, local, read-only, reads: sync 42 async0)

I need to get back "/etc" somehow.  Please help.

Thx.

KT
