Anyways, more to the point. It wants freebsd's kernel source. I generally recommend keeping all of the freebsd source around, but the maybe "easiest" way to get the source is to run sysinstall (/stand/sysinstall) and go to Configure -> Distributions -> src -> and then select at least sys (the kernel sources). Good luck :) -- If I write a signature, my emails will appear more personalised.
