I booted to single user mode from the boot prompt, but was unable to do
anything inside var because there were no directories there!?

So, I booted to full mode then did

# init 1

Here, I tried as you suggested but yet again I got the same error.

Also, when I boot up I have kern_securelevel="0" set in my rc.conf,
which is not > 0

?
