Ehm, obviusly you need a built /usr/obj tree so you need also to do :

(server) cd /usr/src
(server) make world

>(server) cd /sys/i386/conf
>(server) cp GENERIC CLIENT_NAME
>(server) edit CLIENT_NAME to suit your needs
>(server) config -r CLIENT_NAME (if 3.0) else config CLIENT_NAME
>(server) cd ../../compile/CLIENT_NAME
>(server) make all
