This can fail when a new kernel isn't installed.

: mergemaster
: make buildkernel
: make installkernel
: reboot

You need to build and install the new kernel first.

Usually you can get away with this order, but if you get into this
habit, it will likely bite you in your next major upgrade (eg going
from 4.x to 5.x, it certainly bit people in 3.x to 4.x).
