Another possibility would be to include the files into the "make distribution" procedure.

make installkernel only installs the kernel and kernel modules and
nothing else. To me, it lives up to its name since /boot/loader.rc is
not a kernel. make installworld installs the other files under /boot,
but doesn't update boot sector code. What is the problem that is being
encountered? Is make installworld not installing the files you expect?
(Step 6). Or is the reboot failing after step 4 because
/boot/{menu,loader}.rc are not updated?

remove menu.rc and loader.rc install guards
Since r258270 try-include's menu.rc.local and loader.rc.local, the install guards can go away. This will make installworld experience match that of freebsd-update. Update r285736 to r285816, menu.rc not auto update I opened Differential D3176 about it: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D3176 Created attachment 159122 [details]
