   =7C 	I know. But I try to _re_mount /usr in readonly mode to run fsck=20
   =7C without rebooting my server...
 
 NetBSD does not currently support moving from read-write to read only,
 you need to boot with the file system in read only mode (you can switch
 to read-write later if you need to.)
 
 I have a patch you can apply that will allow switching to read-only mode,=
 
 but you do need to be very careful - the ability to do that was removed
 because it does not always work correctly, to switch to read-only mode ta=
 kes
 some care to make sure the filesystem is in a suitable state first (the
 system should simply make it work, but no-one ever found out why it didn'=
 t.)
