Boot into single user.  vi rc.conf.  turn securelevel to 0.  reboot.  That
should fix it.  Secure level breaks X.  Also if you do chflags -schg, you
will not be able to change those until the secure level is set to 0.  On a
working production system this is good!  Increased security is good.

hello,

i raised my kern.securelevel to 2. soon i realized, that this was a wrong
decission for what im doing, such as using bpf. ive
read that there is no other way to switch it down, than reinstalling
freebsd. is this true? because i really want to avoid that
step.

thank you.
