Heya,
To remove the old kernel just delete /kernel and rename /kernel.old to /kernel.
But note that you need to build the whole world (cd /usr/src/ && make buildworld && make installworld) before the kernel will be in sync with the rest of the system. If the kernel version is not in sync with the version of the 'world' (ie the user-land applications such as SSH, etc) then problems can occur.
The FreeBSD manual has more information on the correct prodecure for upgrading a FreeBSD box.
Regards, James

So tonight I walked through compiling my kernel from 4.9-STABLE to 4.10-STABLE.
Compiling it went really well and all looked good until I reboot. When I
rebooted All seemed to go ok for a bit... but then commands started to hang and
disconnecting from SSH would leave my SSH session hung. I reboot back into my
kernel.old and most everything is relatively happy again.
But now my question. How do I make this the default kernel again? I obviously
don't want to use the new kernel because it has problems. Can someone help me
with this?
For reference sake I only used the GENERIC config and the only like I added to
it was the options line to add user quotas.
THanks
