And if you do installpkg how does it configure the kernel for you?

Installpkg
Pro: Easy
Con: See your own question for the answer. Though if you want to know, all you really have to do is look at the config file from the package.
compiling
Pro: Kernel custom tailored to your system.
Con: If you've never compiled, you will be forced to learn a whole lot about your system, kernel compiling, and Linux in general... or maybe that's a pro, too.
