It's easy, just:

Copy modules to:

/lib/modules/`uname -r`/

Copy device tree binaries to:

/boot/dtbs/`uname -r`/*.dtb

copy vmlinuz/zimage to:

/boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r`

in /boot/uEnv.txt

set:
uname_r=`uname -r`

if you want to specify a specific device tree binary to load:

set:

dtb=my-device-tree.dtb
