Best way to update

There are some things I'd like to remove from the kernel such as IPv6 and unused devices as well as adding ALTQ support. However, freebsd-update doesn't work with a custom kernel but if I understand from what I read it will update the source.

Is it a viable method and would you recommend having a custom kernel and using freebsd-update and if needed then compiling a new kernel if source is updated?

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks!
 
/etc/src.conf and kernel config files need to be configured to remove or add features to both base and kernel itself. Read man page or handbook.
