Ok, I think I have it installed on my drive, but when I boot, no matter whether I boot into single user mode or not, my file system is read only and WILL NOT mount the /usr partition.  Even after marking / rw, the command:
mount /dev/sd0g /usr fails, still complaining of a read-only filesystem.  What did I do wrong?
