If you are indeed running "buildkernel" on an amd64 machine, your kernel
configuration file should be in /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/GREED instead of
the path you mentioned above.

This is why the "buildkernel" target cannot find it.  It looks for a
local configuration file at:

	/usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/GREED

but you have put yours at:

	/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GREED
