            Bug ID: 225159
           Summary: `make installkernel=E2=80=99 should display a =E2=80=9C=
completed=E2=80=9D
                    message if done
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: wosch@FreeBSD.org

If you build a kernel you will see in the log output some status messages as

$ make buildkernel
>>> Kernel build for GENERIC started on Sun Jan 14 05:03:57 PST 2018
>>> stage 1: configuring the kernel
[...]
>>> Kernel build for GENERIC completed on Sun Jan 14 05:54:22 PST 2018

If you see the message =E2=80=9CKernel build for GENERIC completed=E2=80=9D=
 then you know the
kernel was successfully build.

if you install the kernel

$ make installkernel
>>> Installing kernel GENERIC
[....]
kldxref /boot/kernel

There is no  =E2=80=9CInstalling kernel GENERIC completed=E2=80=9D message.=
 It is not obvious
if the kernel installation was successfully.

BTW, we should also display the time when the kernel was installed, as we do
for the build.
