That's the problem. From the init man page:
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 file systems by
unmounting them, but also inhibits running newfs(8) while
the system is multi-user.
You can either boot into single user mode (boot -s) or temporarily lower
your secure level to work with the disk.
Cheers,
