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).
