For the record, I've just had this same exact thing happen - unfortunately,
this is an old 486 I use as a mail server and the make process is about
19hours - I'm not *absolutely* sure that the buildworld step was flawless, I
started it on a telnet session from my upstairs office and had to reboot
that machine before completion, but I did check it a couple times with top
during the night. Build kernel and install kernel went fine - but install
world blew up just as perscribed in this message.
I just re-cvsup'ed and buildworld is running off the machine's console now -
I won't be able to report success or failure till probably 9am CDT tomorrow.
Since it's exactly the same thing I figured it was worth reporting.
Hank

Look in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/boot/i386/boot2 and make sure you have
a boot2 binary in there. If you don't, then it failed to build for
some reason. Are you sure your buildworld finished normally?

^^^^^^^^
Note that your /boot/boot2 is an old copy, not the one you just built.

Your machine will still work ok, so you don't have to wory about that,
but I would try to reolve this ASAP.
