I think I've worked out what's going on now, but not how to fix it. I
gather there's some file or other which tells BSD how to mount the file
systems? Well it looks like in one of the sets provided with the Risc
Disc 3, some joker's prevented /usr from being mounted automatically and
set root to read-only.

mount /usr

seems to fix the first problem, albeit only for the current session, but
how do I make root r/w and get all the others to mount automatically?

Oh, not that I can configure anything while root's read-only, but once
that's sorted, what timezone should I use for BST?
