Subject:   how to? get /sys/conf from minimal install (3.1-RELEASE)

I just did a minimal install on a 386 with a PPP
connection.  All the hardware is very bland/vanilla
(IDE disks, 1 com port, no CD, 8Mb RAM, 3C509).  The
minimal install went well except:

- I didn't eliminate the h/w conflicts before
installing.  Now when /kernel boots, it tries to
configure every every ethernet card it knows about. 
So I just thought I'd do "cd /sys/conf/......".  But
since this is a minimal install, I don't have
/sys/conf.

I can't seem to find a "kernel"-related option in
either the Distribution or Port options in
/stand/sysinstall.

Help is appreciated.

BTW, this was an upgrade from BSDI v1.1 so this
demand-dial PPP and nat looks *waaay* cool.
