After a brand new installation of 4.5-rel I got a error message when running
top:

top: nlist failed

So i searched it up on this mailing list and google and found that the cause
of this is, when  userland and kernel are nog synchronised, and that I
should complete the upgrade process.
I was _not_ upgrading, it was a brand new install. 
Further I found that I was no using /boot/loader to load my kernel, so the
applications couldn't find the kernel symbols, so how do I make my system to
load the /boot/loader?

BTW I also tried recompiling& installing a new kernel, this didn't help
either.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
stef
