I got so that I liked the logs I thought it would be a good idea to install both GENERIC and CUSTOM kernels, so that I could boot to GENERIC if necessary. So, if I add KERNCONF=GENERIC CUSTOM to make.conf, then the generic kernel is installed as /boot/kernel, and I can cp /boot/kernel /boot/kernel.GENERIC. Then I can do installkernel KERNCONF=CUSTOM, and that will install the custom kernel as /boot/kernel, and that will be the default to boot...?help
