I am a totally new user to FreeBSD & UNIX. I want to edit my kernel to support my Sound Blaster 16 PNP. I have installed version 2.2.6 and am using the bash shell. I have read various emails with satisfactory answers to the question. /MY/ question is: How do I "edit" this file? I've purchased Mr. Lehey's book, "The Complete FreeBSD" & read the section on rebuilding the kernel, beginning on page 241. I cannot for the life of me see a reference to a command I might see in DOS like, say, "edit config.sys." I'm guessing I'm just unbelievabaly dense or something. :-) Do I use emacs or vi for this? The OS is up & running okay. I just need to add sound support and configure the PPP, etc., to log into my ISP account.
