 From /usr/src/UPDATING
         make buildworld
         make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE
         make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE
         reboot  (in single user) [1]
         make installworld
         mergemaster
         reboot
 
 
 Hence you are recommended to run installkernel before installworld.
 
 See PR 20326 where the problem is similar.
