>Description:
When you customize Operating System name, /etc/rc.d/motd add a new OS information line at the top of /etc/motd on each new boot.
It happens because name "FreeBSD" is harcoded inside it, i've changed it to get OS name using uname command.
I don't know if the way i did it is the best, but it's working here.
