>Description:
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.
