One difference from desktop PC is that there is only one kernel (stored 
in one kernel partition /dev/mtd2, see /proc/mtd)

To boot more kernels you either need to hack closed bootloader (not fun 
for most sane people) or be able to boot one kernel from another. 
Hopefully the latter can be done via kexec or armboot module in LAB 
(Linux As Bootloader) but both will probably need some work.
