>Description:
While updating 4.1-RELEASE to -current according to '/usr/src/UPDATING',
I got following message in 'make installkernel ...':
  You must activate /boot/device.hints in loader.conf.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Updaters should type '/usr/src/sys/boot; make install' before installkernel
rather than previous 'cp src/sys/${MACHINE_ARCH}/GENERIC.hints /boot/device.hints'
command, I think.
