Pierre,

You should be careful which FreeBSD mailing lists you post to. Because all
FreeBSD's lists are read by volenteers only, if you don't play by the rules
you'll get little or no help. The freebsd-doc mailing list is for querys and
problems with documentation such as the web site, Handbook and FAQ.

You really wanted the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list, which would
have got your problem to people who actually want to help others with their
problems!

Anyway, to your question :

The kernel config file isn't stored in /

These two files are actual kernel binaries :

> -rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  2329748 May 18 04:05 kernel.GENERIC

But the config file will be in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/ and it's name will
depend on what it was called when it was made!

However, the fact that you had to ask this question in the first place suggests
that you don't know that much about customising kernels.

Therefore, I suggest you read the relevent section of the manual in
/usr/share/doc/handbook/ or http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/

And please be more careful with your posting in future.
