Upgrading to 7 from 6.3

Hello All,

I was going to try and update a box from 6.3 to 7 via buildworld all  
32 bit, nothing 64.

Assuming it should be done like this:

make buildworld
make buildkernel
mergemaster -p
make installkernel
(reboot)
(startup on 7 kernel)
make installworld
mergemaster (do full mergemaster)
make installworld
(reboot)

(make sure all is working in 7 then do it all again; just to be sure)
make buildworld
make buildkernel
make installkernel
make installworld


Sound about right? or too redundant?

Thanks in advance.
