That's a syntax error around line 427 of the /etc/rc script. With
4.6.2-RELEASE, you should have version 1.212.2.50 --- line 427 is
right after the network_pass2 function is called. Guess your copy has
got a bit corrupted during your upgrade process.
Boot into single user mode, and mount your filesystems (as for
installworld), and copy the default /etc/rc script from /usr/src:
cd /etc
mv rc rc.old
cp /usr/src/etc/rc rc
chown root:wheel rc
chmod 644 /etc/rc
and then reboot.
If you haven't got a good copy of the /etc/rc script available you can
download it from:

Cheers,
Matthew
