Yes, I did this before I rebooted the first time. :) I am back from rebooting and everything works now. Just for everyone else's sake that may come across this in the future. Here's what I did to get up and going after grabbing a fresh -current tree. cd /usr/src/include; make all install cd /usr/src/sbin/mount; make all install cd /usr/src/sys/conf/i386; config mykernel cd ../../compile/mykernel; make depend all install cd /dev cp /usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV.local . cp /usr/src/etc/etc.i386/MAKEDEV . sh ./MAKEDEV all sh ./MAKEDEV wd0s1a Reboot and viola. You will also want to change /etc/fstab as suggested in the boot messages and 'make world' after you come back up. Many thanks to all who responded!
