No, you don't need to. It went on and built your kernel. You should have seen hundreds of messages after the one on make depend. The install kernel should have installed what you build. The only change you might make is that KERNEL=MYKERNEL should now be KERNCONF=MYKERNEL. That has been in effect for a couple of days. See, /usr/src/Makefile.inc1 for comments. BTW, on many systems, you don't need to reboot to single user mode. That makes updating your world update even faster.
