I think what Ryan is looking for is:

	/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC

Which will only exist if the /src/ssys.aa, ssys.ab, ssys.ac distribution
was installed on his system.

Be sure to preserve an original GENERIC, and read the kernel section of
the handbook, which will be at:

	/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html

assuming you did install /doc/doc.aa, doc.ab, etc.
