Agreed with Daniel. Pierrick, this is an incorrect method. the world target has been deprecated. Really, read the handbook and UPDATING for more info. To the OP, now that you borked your install by trying to installworld before you did installkernel, you may be in an indeterminate state that you can't get out of without a lot of work by hand sorting out the files. You may need to backup and start over (fresh install) Though possibly you can get it working with Bill's method of booting the old kernel and trying again. But if you've done buildworld buildkernel installworld installkernel installworld you may be up a creek without a paddle. (like I said not that you couldn't swim, but in this case it could be like swimming with a weight belt on) Always read UPDATING and the handook.
