There is no need to run the buildworld target in single user mode.

I think the best advice for some of the issues brought up in this thread is "Read the Handbook." The Rebuilding "world" chapter discusses exactly how to rebuild the system, how to work in single user mode, and explains the -j option.

It also wouldn't be a bad idea to run fsck -p before mounting the drives.
