I cleared out everything on my base system disk so it wasn't just an overwrite of information.

I changed directory into that directory and did a config SINGULARITY as normally do. Changed to /usr/src/sys/compile/SINGULARITY and did a make depend, which failed because there were no sys headers. I noticed that /usr/src/sys/sys was a softlink to /usr/src/sys, which I figured out was wrong. I then made it a softlink to /usr/include/sys, so I could compile. Then, it complained about errno.h not being found, which I then copied from /usr/include to /usr/src/include. I finally got my kernel to compile after doing all that, whereas before, I only had to go as far as a make depend ; make. I left out a couple of make depends in there. You can just assume that I did the right thing as far as that is concerned. I'm fairly competent at building my kernel. Other than that, my only problem was getting syslogd to run, which wasn't hard since I noticed there would be no way in heck it could bind a port when the network hasn't been started (no loopback address was set up.)
