Download fixit CDs or floppy images for 5.2+ or from snapshots.jp.freebsd.org and install the included kernel on your hard drive by hand. It will work with your halfway installed world. Use that to install the correct kernel. Reboot with that kernel and finish following the instructions in UPDATING. Alternatly, you could use any fixit CD that can read your disks to install the new kernel by hand (i.e. copying files from /usr/obj). -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
