Thank's for the replies!

I conclude that building form a fresh downed source on a exisiting DragonFly system you do:

cd /usr/src
make buildworld
make buildkernel # *1
make installkernel # *1
# <safety reboot to check if kernel boots>, can be skipped
make installworld
make upgrade # upgrades /etc , replacement for mergemaster
# <reboot> to use the new system

When you upgrade the source you might do the quicker builds in place of the above but when something goes wrong, redo everything the slow way, however:

cd /usr/src
make quickworld
make -DNOCLEAN buildkernel # *2
make installkernel
# <safety reboot to check if kernel boots>, can be skipped
make installworld
make upgrade
# <reboot> to use the new system

*1 define your'e own kernelname by putting "KERNCONF=YOURKERNELNAME" after make installkernel or make buildkernel, this can also be set in /etc/make.conf

*2 the above + make quickkernel as documented in /usr/src/UPDATING doesn't work YET, it may be implemented in the future.
