Keeping a backup is a good idea, but installing it from your x86 wont work in the general case. It only makes sense when the boot uImage is on the SD card, not when it's in flash.
Thanks for the other ideas
Right, I was only talking about the SD card case. I thought we were moving away from kernel-in-flash since some future boards don't even have onboard flash.
