I did not change anything in /dev per your warning.

I've booted in single user but when i try to fsck -p it tells me:
Can't stat /dev/wd0s1a: No such file or directory
I'm also unable to mount any disks.

I did check on the existence of wd0s*, but they do not exist.  What i do
have is

wd0s1 and rwd0s1
wd1s1a thru h, and rwd1s1a thru h

does wd0s1a thru h and rwd0s1a thru h need to be created somehow?

You didn't go moving around anything in /dev did you?  At this point
it's getting difficult to diagnose from a distance but it looks likes
it's telling you that /dev/wd0s* don't exist.  Do they?

Are you able to mount these partitions manually after you drop into
single user mode and run fsck?
