Yes, since you have run installworld you have now installed a 5.x
/bin/sh binary, which cannot run on the 4.x kernel you are running.
The solution is to first boot into the 5.x kernel found at
/boot/kernel/kernel instead of letting your 4.x loader load the old
4.x kernel from the old default location.
