If you are already running the RAMDISK kernel, and are in its shell, you can (re)start the upgrade script or the install script with one of these commands:
# upgrade
or
# install
In both cases, you *must* have booted the RAMDISK kernel. Either from an OpenBSD bootloader or from install media that contains an OpenBSD bootloader.

That did it, that is, I used --bsd.rd-- and pointed to it from boot.conf. Rebooted, and it started. Installation was a success. Now I have to work on other configs, but, tomorrow is another day.
