I was in the single user mode doing 'make installworld' when the system froze and I had to cold reboot. Now in single user mode I get to:

Is there a way to recover? Or do I have to reinstall from scratch?
Try /rescue/sh (or tcsh). It's all statically linked, so you should be able to recover from there.
And if that doesn't work, try a LiveFS CD.
And, if all else fails, you can do a minimal install overtop. You'll lose all your /etc settings, but will get a bootable system again.

easier and less risky to boot in on some form of live cd, mount all the fs up under /mnt, set the DESTDIR=/mnt and continue the installworld
Yes, this is the easiest way to do things:
1. Boot live CD, USB, w/e. 2. mount all of your filesystems. 3. make -C $DESTDIR/usr/src installworld DESTDIR=$DESTDIR
No loss of data. But given that you've already done the reinstall, I suppose there's no way to go back now :/... -Garrett
