This depends on your settings in /etc/freebsd-update.conf:
If the component "kernel" is enabled, the updated GENERIC
kernel will be installed. To avoid this, remove the com-
ponent "kernel" from the list. Keep in mind that you _might_
have to rebuild your custom kernel, so it's useful to have
the component "src" enabled, which will provide the source
version that corresponds to the updated binary installation.
