Well, that's fine if you want to run -current, but in either case you
have to try to get a consistent state together.

Either way -- pick what you want to run, -current or 1.6, get a
/usr/src that completely matches that, build to a DESTDIR/RELDIR, boot
one of the resulting GENERIC kernels, unpack the userland stuff, and
use postinstall/etcupdate to clean up your configuration.
