I think that chapter could emphasise more the second method shown as 
being generally more desirable - namely creating a config file to:

include GENERIC
ident MYKERNEL

options		whatever
nooptions	this that tother
device		something another
nodevice	whiskers jam

as shown in the referenced config(5)

Especially when other people might have to look it over, rather than 
trying to spot everything that differs from GENERIC - and then it would 
also be of a size that you can reasonably include into a list message.

For instance I noticed in passing, while skimming, that you included
 device		umass			# Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus and da
for USB, but had commented out scbus and da in the ATA section.  Not 
suggesting that might be the particular problem here, just an example.

The first and last dozen or so log lines would likely be enough :)

No I don't know what this problem might be, just suggesting that less 
might be more in terms of getting some knowing eyes on the problem.

Have you tried just 'make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC' ? If that works 
alright, it's a config file problem.  Otherwise .. it's an issue :)

FWIW, Ian
