Heya, To remove the old kernel just delete /kernel and rename /kernel.old to /kernel. But note that you need to build the whole world (cd /usr/src/ && make buildworld && make installworld) before the kernel will be in sync with the rest of the system. If the kernel version is not in sync with the version of the 'world' (ie the user-land applications such as SSH, etc) then problems can occur. The FreeBSD manual has more information on the correct prodecure for upgrading a FreeBSD box.
