>Environment:
not neccasary here
>Description:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/de/books/handbook/makeworld.html
The update instructions below the first "blue box" on this page missing a real neccasary line:

make installworld

this here is the command-listing of that handbook-page:
# mount -u /
# mount -a -t ufs
# adjkerntz -i
# mergemaster -p
# cd /usr/src
# mergemaster
# reboot

please fix that ;)

On the other hand an explanaition of -i -U and -F parameters of mergemaster would be really nice, as they could safe a lot of time during the merging if used correctly...
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
add line "make installworld" before mergemaster
