You just need to install and boot into the new kernel before running
'freebsd-update install' again, e.g.:

* make buildkernel installkernel

OR

* download and extract the appropriate release kernel.txz for your arch
  (e.g. ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/10.0-RELEASE/)

Once you finish the full upgrade you should delete your data directory
(defaults to /var/db/freebsd-update) to avoid rolling back to an
inconsistent state in the future.
