Repopulating the GENERIC kernel

I have a production 6.2 STABLE machine w/something like this in /etc/make.conf:
KERNCONF=MYKERN SMP GENERIC
When I do a 'make kernel', as I understand it, all three kernels get *build* but only
MYKERN actually gets installed.
So ... how do I get the latest version of GENERIC (that I just compiled per the above)
"installed" into /boot *without* it actually being the active kernel. IOW, I want
my kernel build to *install* MYKERN as the active kernel and refresh GENERIC just in
case I need it to recover a failed boot...
TIA,
