Editing Kernel Config
If I want to edit my kernel config, once I'm done, what do I have to do next to make the changes go into effect?

Could you please elaborate on how you edited your kernel config? Did you do it via config -e or did you edit a file under /usr/src/sys/[arch]/i386/conf -- we'll need to know this information first before giving any advice.

I'm simply changing a few things in the config. I changed the make.conf file so it uses the proper kernel config. Now what do I do from here?

Short answer:
Compile and install the kernel.

For the long answer you have to supply much more information. Maybe start with telling us which OS you are using...

FreeBSD 4.9 STABLE. The compile/install of the kernel is where I need help.
