The intention is to keep everything up to date, while keeping it relevant to any release from (at least) the last two or three years. 5.2.1 was an "early adopters" release (http://be-well.ilk.org/FreeBSD/releases/5.2.1R/early-adopter.html), so it is intentionally not documented as carefully as releases that were intended for general use. > In > beginning of the documentation, in chapter 2.3.2 you wrote about > Kernel Configuration.

Or just stay with the GENERIC kernel, if it works fine for you. > I should attach my > kernel configuration file but BSD works on virtual machine and I > need to copy this file on a USB flash but I don't know how to > connect it to BSD. There is a FAQ entry on that.
