Hello,
I just got through this same problem myself.
If I may, allow me to add this suggestion.

Once you cp your own copy of GENERIC kernel;
cd to /usr/src
make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_NAME
make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_NAME

Make sure that the KERNCONF is in UPPERCASE!  Otherwise it will default 
to GENERIC.  Trust me on this one.
