I would like to build FreeBSD to install in two places: regular hard drive and
also on a USB stick, probably 8 GB.
USB stick install would be for backup, in case something goes awry with a later
update, then I have something to fall back on; could also install tools such as
gdisk to use on hard drive.
I tried make installkernel and make installworld, but those didn't fully work
right the second time, with DESTDIR=/mnt (USB stick main partition).
REALLY can't help you without any info attached.
As from your description it just have to work and you did all fine.
anyway i usually just do installs to DESTDIR=/something, then tar.gz it
up, and untar whenever i need (but separately tar.gz for /boot/kernel
subdir)
use --unlink option when untarring on live system.
