Dear Christopher Klumb,

if you followed the steps you mentioned in your letter, you are
booting your new kernel.
This should be clear from the field "time" of your new kernel.

As to the messages at boot time, you should only be ... a little more
patient and have a closer look at the system :-)

In particular, you might want to have a *look* at
/boot/defaults/loader.conf and *edit* /boot/kernel.conf.
Before editing the file, you might decide to copy it to
kernel.conf.orig if you like -- which is always a good practice.

If it is the case, you could leave an empty /boot/kernel.config as a
reminder.
The annoying messages will disappear, leaving only a harmless
"config>" line.

Of course, if you compile kernels, you are bound to read "man config"
;-)

Best regards and Happy New Year,
Salvo
