Below is the instructions I followed which I copied from the current
/usr/src/UPDATING file.

Should these instructions be modified/updated to be:

I don't claim know enough about this to make instructions but after
booting into single user mode (and I am sure after the <reboot>) I

I decided to try "make installkernel" and reboot again which fixed the
