Can someone tell me why this config file compiles to a 7.6 MB kernel?
The generic kernel from the install is only 2.3 MB.  I have the Lehey
book and have been through the handbook at FreeBSD.org on kernel config.

The pc is a 486 with isa/pci motherboard, intel ethernet express pro 100
pci net card, ps2 mouse, mitsumi cd-rom on ATAPI ide interface, and a
crappy vibra16 sound card.

# Configuring the FreeBSD Kernel -> The Configuration File. 
# The handbook is available in /usr/share/doc/handbook or online as
# latest version from the FreeBSD World Wide Web server 
# <URL:http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/>;
#
# An exhaustive list of options and more detailed explanations of the 
# device lines is present in the ./LINT configuration file. If you are 
# in doubt as to the purpose or necessity of a line, check first in LINT.
