Your kernel build is using the old non-recommended way the better way would be to

cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
cp GENERIC MYKERNEL
echo "options QUOTA" >>MYKERNEL
cd /usr/src
make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL

You can use the quota and edquota commands like so
quota
edquota -u USER
