I'm not sure the kernel package scripts have this logic.  I doubt it,
and that's why I asked ;)

I tried to find a kernel package to check but I couldn't find one.

1 OS in flash (initial OM2007.2),
1 SD card with 4 partitions (2 of them containing a bootable system).

I'm afraid that upgrading the kernel on one of the SD card systems could
flash the NAND kernel (and then the kernel wouldn't match the OM2007.2
modules).
Of course there would be a few ways to recover from this situation, but
if I can make sure it will not happen it's all the better...
