In the make file for /usr/src it says I need to boot into single user 
mode.  Is this possible from a remote connection (I don't think it is)?  
Do I have to be in single user mode to do the following?:

# 5.  `reboot'        (in single user mode: boot -s from the loader prompt).
# 6.  `mergemaster -p'
# 7.  `make installworld'
# 8.  `mergemaster'
# 9.  `reboot'

I administer this box by remote.
