That's the 'old' way of compiling a kernel. Nowadays you should do it
the 'new' way, like this:
cd /usr/src
make buildkernel KERNCONF=UNIPROC
make installkernel KERNCONF=UNIPROC
(Putting 'KERNCONF=UNIPROC' into /etc/make.conf is a pretty handy trick...)
The old way is only guarranteed to work nowadays if you've already
done a {build,install}world and a {build,install}kernel with the same
sources. Preferably in the order and according to the instructions
given in /usr/src/UPDATING.
Cheers,
Matthew
