As it goes, I think it is considered a custom/good practice when you build your own kernel that you don't name it GENERIC; that may even extend to not changing anything but just producing a local build (not 100% sure about that though). GENERIC seems 'predestined' for the FreeBSD build servers who include it in their deliverables (~images etc.).

It also makes for clearer communication when information or advice is sought. The idea is that a build of your own results by definition in an OS with a custom kernel.

There seems to be a misunderstanding, I meant that I compiled a custom kernel.
I named it MYKERNEL.
The part with the GENERIC kernel is for people who prefer to compile the stock kernel.
