I'm sorry, I thought that it could be assumed that I installed RELEASE:
I simply installed 11.0-RELEASE-p1 (from an iso image) and updated the
source from base/releng/11.0 which gave me revision 320623.

	make buildworld
	make kernel
	shutdown -r now
-> kernel panic
then...
	boot kernel.old

I did not try anything custom.
