Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt.

Now type boot -s and press the enter key to start FreeBSD in single user mode. After the system boots, you should see the statement:
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:
Press the enter key and you will have a # prompt.
[Mount the filesystems]
At the command prompt, issue the mount command. This command will mount all the filesystems listed in your /etc/fstab file.
# mount -t ufs -a
[Change the root password]
Issue the passwd command and you will be prompted to enter a new password for the root account.
# passwd

There is no need to reboot the operating system to go to multi-user mode. The exit command will cause the system to return to multi-user mode without a reboot.
