mdmfs don't work on CURRENT diskless sparc64:

Loading configuration files.
Entropy harvesting: interrupts ethernet point_to_point.
Starting file system checks:
nfs: can't update /var/db/mounttab for 1.1.1.1:/sparc64/netboot
cp: utmp: Read-only file system
/etc/rc.d/cleanvar: cannot create /var/run/clean_var: Read-only file system
+++ mount_md of /var
mdmfs: newfs exited with error code 36
nfs: can't update /var/db/mounttab for 1.1.1.1:/sparc64/netboot
.....
dropping into shell, ^D to continue anyway.

P.S. On current 20030825 diskless operations works fine.
