Not only does it look like they don't exist; they don't exist :)

That don't mean squat :) Are you running devfs? I presume you don't have
something odd like a /dev entry in fstab. Do you run an initfs?

All partitions are mounted read-only initially; setting them read-write
in fstab means 'I would like to be able to write to this device when you
mount it' - i.e., it mounts read-only, checks it out, and then makes it
writeable when it's done.
