Slow down bud, your doing to many things at the same time and missing
critical steps.
Lets start from the top. Your sup file should look like this:
*default host=cvsup5.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_11
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all
Normally you have at least two sup files, one for the system and the
other(s) for everything else.
After you re-cvsup you need to buildworld, not the kernel. here are
the general steps:
1. build world.
2. build kernel, use the generic kernel!!!!!!
3. install kernel.
4. reboot.
5. do a basic test of the system. if basic things such as; ls, cd,
more, and grep work then...
6. drop into single user mode ('shutdown now')
7. install world.
8. run mergemaster.
9. reboot.
10. Test out new system.
11. make and install your custom kernel, don't use your old custom
config file, make a new one based on the, new, generic kernel config
file!!
12. cvsup ports src.
13. update / install new ports.
