This is what I do; notes created for internal use - but seem to work.
In addition to this you need the cvsup binary and need to create a cvsupfile
in /etc.

-------------------------------
cvsup -g -L 2 /etc/cvsupfile

cd /usr/src
time make buildworld
cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/config
make install
cd /sys/i386/conf
config kernel-config-file
cd ../../kernel-config-file
make clean && make depend && make
cd /usr/src
make installworld
cd /sys/compile/kernel-config-file
make install

reboot
-----------------------------------


Hope this helps!
