I doubt this is the kernel that is running. To run generic again, simply install the generic kernel much the same way you did the custon kernel. cd /usr/src make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC make installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC or set KERNCONF in /etc/make.conf If you tweaked /boot/loader.conf to load something other than /boot/kernel/kernel then you'll need to untweak it.
