I just installed netbsd on my alpha. after the install and reboot, it =
comes
up in single user mode. i can cd into /etc but i cannot run ed rc.conf

the error is ed: /tmp/ed.00010a: Read-only file system

according to the install.html at
ftp.netbsd.org/pub/netbsd/netbsd-1.4.1/alpha

If you haven't done any configuration of /etc/rc.conf, the system will =
drop
you into single user mode on first reboot with the message
/etc/rc.conf is not configured. Multiuser boot aborted.
and with the root filesystem mounted read-write.

how do i change to read-write?

thanks
