i don't see any "config NEW_FILE" like statements on these pages.. i see
the /usr/src/sys/i386/conf directory.. and i don't see that command he
told me to do:
make cleandepend ; make depend ; make && make install
i see "make buildkernel" and "make installkernel" that makes me very
nervous.
Don't be.
What the first person advised you on was the old way of compiling a
kernel, the new way is to use make buildkernel and make installkernel
from /usr/src.
Just follow the example in the hand book.

okay. i was there. should "MYKERNEL" be "NEW_FILE?"
MYKERNEL, NEW_FILE are just the name of the kernel configuration file.
cp /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/KAYVEN
vi /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/KAYVEN
Change 'ident GENERIC' to 'ident KAYVEN'. This is to identify which
kernel your system is running.
Add/remove devices, options as needed.
cd /usr/src
make buildkernel KERNCONF=KAYVEN
make installkernel KERNCONF=KAYVEN
