Hmm, I think you have to make a trip or get some kind of remote console 
over ip.
I tried it remote on a 9.1-RC2 system that has / /tmp /var and /usr as 
seperate partions
For / i can do a mount -o ro / and tunefs -j disable /dev/da0p2 then 
mount -o rw /
For the /tmp /var and /usr filesystems this does not work bcause hey 
cannot be remounted ro while they are busy.
