Solved System recovery from missformatted /etc/rc.conf

[Ferocious1881]

I have and standardly full disk encryption zfs root system from the official installer. I misformated a quote in my /etc/rc.conf/, but logging in single user mode and trying to correct my mistake with vi, gives me the error: impossible to create temporary file, filesystem read only.

How can I recover my system?

mount -u -o rw /

mount -u -o rw /

Thanks, with this command you can mount your root filesystem as read-write and make the changes.

Or, if you're using ZFS, zfs set readonly=off zroot/ROOT/default (assuming a default install and BE)

You probably also want to do zfs mount -a and/or mount -a when in single user mode.

Oh, right, I totally missed that. I wonder if this mount command would work on ZFS.
