Here's what I changed in rc.sysinit:
----
if [ -x /etc/rc.oneshot -a ! -f /etc/.doneoneshot ] ; then
  /etc/rc.oneshot
fi

# Remount the root filesystem read-write.
state=`awk '/(^\/dev\/root| \/ )/ { print $4 }' /proc/mounts`
[ "$state" != "rw" ] && \
  action $"Remounting root filesystem in read-write mode: " \
  mount -n -o remount,rw /

if [ -x /etc/rc.oneshot -a ! -f /etc/.doneoneshot ] ; then
  /bin/mv -f /etc/rc.oneshot /etc/rc.oneshot.done
  /bin/touch /etc/.doneoneshot
  /sbin/reboot
fi
----

I checked for both files because of paranoia--I don't have access to the
console, so I have to be really sure the machine will come back up!
