hi there,

i've stumbled over some issues running 9-CURRENT i386 (r197427) and would like
to ask if these are in fact problems/bugs or the way things are meant to work.

isssue 1:
when booting into single user mode / (dev/label/rootfs) gets mounted
read-only. when doing `fsck /dev/label/rootfs` problems can be solved because
fsck has write access to the drive due to it being mounted read-only.

however if i do `mount -r -o noatime /dev/label/usr /usr` and run `fsck
/dev/label/usr` fsck isn't able to gain write access.

issue 2:
after issueing the following commands in single user mode:
`mount -r -o noatime /dev/label/rootfs /usr`
`umount /usr`
`cd /usr && ls`

i got the following panic:

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode

Previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)

issue 3:
is it normal that fsck in background mode is ~ 400 % slower than in foreground
mode? running fsck in single user mode takes ~ 4 minutes. if however the fs is
marked dirty and get's fsck'ed in the background running multi user mode
fsck'ing takes ~ 20 minutes. this is of course without any hdd or cpu
intensive apps running.

thx for reading.
alex
