i'd suggest you to run etcupdate -b /tmp prior to postinstall.  other
than that, it's pretty much what i am doing here regularly.  i always
build distribution sets and custom kernel and proceed with the steps
described above, in more details:

 - backup the old kernel and put the new kernel in place
 - reboot to single-user mode
 - unpack sets except etc.tgz to / with pax -zrpe -f [set].tgz
 - unpack etc.tgz into /tmp/tmproot
 - run etcupdate -b /tmp/tmproot, regenerate /dev within this process
 - run /etc/postinstall check and fix if necessary
 - install new bootblock
 - reboot into new system


regards,
