You should probably read:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/makeworld.html
Note that KERNCONF=<YOURKERNELCONFIGHERE> in (For example) make
buildkernel KERNCONF=<YOURKERNELCONFIGHERE> will build YOUR kernel
configuration.
To make such a configuration implicit, add
KERNCONF=<YOURKERNELCONFIGHERE> to /etc/make.conf
Note that the above could raise problems at some point, so do not forget
the line was added :)
Hopefully this helps!
Best regards,
Remko
