The directions in UPDATING leave you running
an OLD kernel after rebooting into single-user.
(Installkernel puts the kernel in the new location,
but the old boot loader is still on disk, so it
loads the kernel from the old location.)  If
a new kernel is required at this point, then
UPDATING is wrong or installkernel is wrong.
