Very Computer

then when in multi-user mode:

/dev/wd0s3f on /usr (ufs, NFS exported, local, writes: sync 12418 async
26955, reads: sync 7051

I don't see softupdates flag... what's up with that? How can I check
that softupdates are actually running? on my other system:

/dev/ad0s1f on /usr (ufs, local, soft-updates, writes: sync 6 async
6084, reads: sync 17334 async 208)

Are you shure you are rebooting to the kernel that has softupdates
enabled? I am running with softupdates enabled in 4.0 and have
rebooted many times... my mount command shows:

/dev/da0a on / (ufs, local, soft-updates, writes: sync 82 async 19087, reads: sync 10232 async 541)

Perhaps it is using an alternate superblock.  Despite that the man
page says the -A flag is potentially dangerous, it is a good idea in
this case to use it.
