Hi all,

I am absolutely a newbie in freebsd. My query is that I want to create
an image from the freebsd sources. And I will be using this image to
boot another x86 machine. Is there any utility that will use the
compiled kernel and build the image? .Please be as descriptive in your
answers as possible.

Thanks & Regards
