Assuming an x86 box, put the following in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/PPS:

#
# PPS -- Generic kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/i386 PPS
#

include GENERIC

ident           PPS-GENERIC

options         PPS_SYNC

and then add the following line to /etc/make.conf:

KERNCONF=    PPS GENERIC

(Assuming you want "cd /usr/src && make buildkernel installkernel) to build
both kernels and only install the PPS kernel).

I also add the lines:

link    cuaa1   refclock-0
link    cuaa1   pps0

to the end of /etc/devfs.conf, and *sometimes* it looks like those links are
not created soon enough in the boot sequence, but it's sporadic and I have
not had time to chase it down yet.
