Hello,

I've run today "freebsd-update fetch" and it found some updates,
including /boot/kernel/kernel:

The following files will be updated as part of updating to 7.0-RELEASE-p4:
/boot/kernel/kernel
/boot/kernel/kernel.symbols
/usr/src/sys/amd64/amd64/exception.S
/usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh
/usr/src/sys/kern/vfs_mount.c
/usr/src/sys/netinet6/icmp6.c

Then I ran "freebsd-update install"

# freebsd-update install
Installing updates... done.

I guess this does not update my running kernel and I have to reboot to
really update it. Right? Or is there any way to do this without
reboot? O course I doubt it but I'd like to make sure I'm not missing
some magic feature... :-).

Thanks!
