There are a few things different but the buildworld, build[install]kernel, installworld method is used on both branches. I think 4.7 has been EOLed, i.e., no bug fixes or security fixes.

You probably won't see that until 5.3-stable. Kent -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA http://users.owt.com/kstewart/index.html
