I fixed it by booting into snapshots install72.img (-stable kernel turns out to not boot -current) and going thorugh the upgrade process. installboot must've been what I needed to do.
For the sake of the archive: Initially I couldn't upgrade because I exited to shell from the installer to decrypt the disk right at the prompt asking which disk to upgrade, and the installer didn't recognize the disk at that point. I had to exit at the keyboard layout prompt right beforehand to have it recognized. Thank you for the help.
