Also check the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html By executing "mergemaster -a" you don't actually merge the files. This may not update important files. If you're using customised kernel, then probably you took something important out of it. Try GENERIC to rule this one out. I hope this helps.
