D'OH! :P

Sorry. That _should_ have read:

make installkernel KERNCONF=<mykern_name_here>
____________^^^^^^

Good catch! I can assure you, I _did_ do it correctly, when
actually performing the install. :)

FWIW Mine was a fresh install from the 9.0 CD1,
then a sync src, ports && make build(world||kernel); install(kernel||world).

Best wishes.
