OK, to be sure =)

cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
cp -p GENERIC KERNELNAME
vi KERNELNAME
[ building of custom kernel ]
config KERNELNAME
cd ../../compile/KERNELNAME
make clean    [ note, is very handy to do ]
make depend
make 
make install

To speed up the processes of make append a -j# switch where # is a number
ranging from 1 to 256 or more depending on hardware, I use -j16 mostly.

Left out any steps?
