maybe i'm completely wrong here... are you world + kernel in sync? I would
guess that you'd want them to be... maybe you can boot into 6 with a CD, mount
all the disks as needed (assuming that userland-version-6 works fine with
kernel-v6 and raid-version-5 ), finish installworld, and then reboot to start
using the tools on the FS...
