Yes, the ource must be present on disk to use.  but you can cheat and 
lndir the usr/src/sys tree from the live filesystem CDROM if you're stuck.

For proper reconfig instructions, consult the FreeBSD Handbook at 
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook.html, or look in /usr/share for an older 
but sufficient version.  Or order "Installing and Running FreeBSD" from 
walnut Creek, which you can get for free if you bought the 2.1 CD.
