It might be a good idea to split the commands into buildworld-buildkernel-installkernel-installworld, but this would work.

Some mention of mergemaster or etcupdate might be advised.

It would also be good if the example wasn't using an architecture that's planned to be de-orbited "soon".

OK. I like this. However, I have a suggestion (inspired by Ravi's comment) for improvement that should be done, but you may consider it beyond the scope of this change.

How about an armv6 architecture on an amd64 host instead, since that's likely the most popular and therefore most relevant. It also copes with the special case where you need to specify TARGET_ARCH, so covers more ground.

Yup this is fine. Both are -j safe too if it can be explained succinctly.

Specifying both TARGET and TARGET_ARCH looks ugly, because it takes too much horizontal space. Is it ok to pass just the latter?
