i just had the following idea: how about instead of copying the
current kernel
to /boot/kernel.old and then installing the new one under /boot/kernel as the
results of target installkernel, we create a unique directory name
for the old
kernel?
The default size of / is likely your biggest problem.
Don't know how much compresable is /boot/kernel.old but tar with -z
or -j may be a workaround. We can extract on demand and swap current
/boot/kernel with new /boot/kernel. Other way of do it is link
/boot/kernel to current kernel and update it, but i don't know
(again) if it would work in single user mode.
