There's another case where you updated the kernel during jffs2 rootfs booted session, but you also boot on SD Card other times. Then, itwould be good if it made sure that the kernel update action also updated what would be /media/card/boot -- previously I stuck my kernels in / but/boot is fine now I see it is the convention -- if there was a uImage.bin already in there.
If you change rootfs you also change your package database (it's a different rootfs after all), so running 'opkg update ; opkg upgrade' will upgrade the uImage in /boot (which is now on SD).
If I were using an sd card as backup rootfs I would *not* appreciate it some update script blows away known-working kernels everywhere outside /boot because some openmoko kernel developer has a fetish about only using his divinely approved kernel with a zillion git hashes stuffed in its version.
