What has me concerned is whether you installed your kernel before you did the installworld. Version 5.2 has a different statfs, which needs the new kernel to run. An old world and a new kernel was fine but an old kernel and a new world was a show stopper. You had to use the fixit disk to recover your system. There are different options in the config file for 5.2 and you would need to start with a new GENERIC to create your MYKERNEL. Beyond that, I don't have any ideas at this point.
