But in the middle of freebsd-update it says to update the kernel and rebuild it.....how should i update the kernel....or when it reboots and the /usr/src files have changed; i can see the new GENERIC file....i have to rebuild it from that new modified GENERIC, so that i custom it, and build the kernel from there? Thanks mate! Cheers, Agustin
