Well, the proper syntax is "make buildkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL". KERNCONF is the new variable name for CURRENT, but STABLE still uses KERNEL. If you still get an error, though, double-check for typos (extra/missing comment character, etc.) that may not necessarily be on line 65. Use "diff" to compare it with a known good kernel config file. If you still can't find anything wrong, just start over and make your edits on the most recent GENERIC. ;) I generally do this whenever GENERIC has changed since my last kernel build anyway.

I had just installed FreeBSD 4.2 RELEASE on my home PC and had CVSUP'd my ports and then the source for STABLE. Everything seemed to go fine with "make world" and "mergemaster" but when I got to: "make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL" It fails with an error that goes something like: "Error line # 65 in config. Devices can't use identity of 0....." I am using a custom kernel, not GENERIC, that I've recompiled a few times before attempting the move to STABLE. I looked at line # 65 of my kernel and also the GENERIC kernel and it's just the "device pcm" line. I don't know how to fix this. Can someone help me?
