Thanks for the pointers.

During the installation I got the following error:

# make installkernel
...
kldxref /boot/kernel
kldxref: error while reading /boot/kernel/iwlwifi-9000-pu-b0-jf-b0-46.ucode.ko: Bad address
kldxref: error while reading /boot/kernel/iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-46.ucode.ko: Bad address
kldxref: error while reading /boot/kernel/ktest_netlink_message_writer.ko: Bad address

I know the reason (the install process uses the old existing kldxref which does
not can handle some things). I proceeded with the installation and all
is fine, the box is up again in multiuser and /usr/sbin/kldxref is now
from today. Should I run 'make installkernel' a 2nd time?
