FreeBSD boot from single to multi-user

To boot a FreeBSD machine (just about any version) from a single user maintenance boot (boot -s from loader or option 4 from boot menu) into full multi-user mode:

# mount -a
# swapon -a
# exit

This will boot the multi-user init level. Very useful when half way through store verify on your large arrays 🙂
