Is this question for FreeBSD or Mac OS X?
I would like to build FreeBSD to install in two places: regular hard drive and
also on a USB stick, probably 8 GB.
USB stick install would be for backup, in case something goes awry with a later
update, then I have something to fall back on; could also install tools such as

Are they redundant? Kernel will build with both these options, but will it

Also,
According to ugen man page, ugen can be compiled into the kernel with
