This is  the tools I'm looking for! Thank you.
I tried to install fbsd 5.1-release again, and recompile the kernel from 
5.1-rel sources. But  I CANNOT boot with new kernel I 
recompile, system goes to reboot instead of booting new kernel. :-)) E.g. 
initial booting with generic (after install) goes fine, 
recompiling kernel from 5.1-release sources goes fine, and after reboot 
system becomes unbootable. No kernel panic, just silent reboot after pressing 
enter in boot menu with beastie. Funny trouble I have the first time in my 
life.
