Description Anes Mukhametov 2013-10-02 15:00:00 UTC 
        I use custom FreeBSD releases which include more than one custom kernel.
        In my case I can't update with freebsd-update, it fails with fetch_metadata_bogus.

        The reason is custom kernel path /boot/kernel.CUSTOMKERNEL is invalid for freebsd-update.
        Attached patch fixes this behaviour.

How-To-Repeat:         Build your own release with more than one kernel (GENERIC+XENHVM for example). Set up freebsd-update server and try to update.
