In the past I was used to use the following procedure to install a new
kernel and world:

    # cd /usr/src
    # make installkernel
    # shutdown -r now

    boot -s from the loader prompt

    # adjkerntz -i
    # mount -a -t ufs
    # mergemaster -p
    # cd /usr/src
    # make installworld
    # mergemaster
    # yes | make delete-old
    # yes | make delete-old-libs

    # reboot

Now the handbook https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/cutting-edge/#makeworld
says only:

    # cd /usr/src
    # make installkernel
    # shutdown -r now
    # cd /usr/src
    # make installworld
    # shutdown -r now

Has this changed in past two years?

Thanks
