make installkernel only installs the kernel and kernel modules and
nothing else. To me, it lives up to its name since /boot/loader.rc is
not a kernel. make installworld installs the other files under /boot,
but doesn't update boot sector code. What is the problem that is being
encountered? Is make installworld not installing the files you expect?
(Step 6). Or is the reboot failing after step 4 because
/boot/{menu,loader}.rc are not updated?
