Read this; http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Why Especially; Some reasons you might want or need to build a custom kernel: You really know what you are doing, and want to shoe-horn OpenBSD onto a computer with a small amount of RAM by removing device drivers you don't need. You really know what you are doing, and wish to remove default options or add options which may not have been enabled by default (and have good reason to do so). You really know what you are doing, and wish to enable experimental options. You really know what you are doing, and have a special need that is not met by GENERIC, and aren't going to ask why it doesn't work if something goes wrong. Do you *really* know what you are doing?
