Ok I've moved over to  the new regime and used 

make buildkernel KERNEL=GNOME
make installkernel KERNEL=GNOME

I've created

/boot/loader.conf 

with options

kernel="/GNOME"
bootfile="GNOME"



What exactly does bootfile do other than put text in the square brackets
in the boot up text ie
Booting[GNOME] in ...

if I leave bootfile option out I get
Booting[kernel] in ...

but it boots the right kernel. Should I be editing any other options?
