I'm not sure I understand your question, but if you mean how
do I get anything done on a machine that panics on boot --
I just re-booted with the good kernel from the day before.

I this case I knew for certain that userland was still
compatible with the old kernel because userland had not
changed (i.e. cvsup showed only kernel commits).  That's
one advantage to rebuilding the system every day :o)
If the old kernel had been too out of date to work, then
I would have done what you suggested.
