Your userland is out of sync with your kernel. I suggest you tell us
what steps you took to get here. I'm referring to steps like:
- make world
- compile your kernel
- update /etc/fstab and the likes
- update /dev/MAKEDEV
and other things you could come up with that might be related to
modifying your system files.
See if you can get someone to send you a kernel. Boot from the first CD,
go to Fix-it/CDROM and then copy that kernel for example from a floppy
onto the mounted root partition as kernel.CURRENT and reboot again,
booting the new kernel.CURRENT.
Big question: Why do you run current if you don't read the mail
