The kernel image (@Image@) is located in the @boot@ image and partition and the kernel modules are installed in the root file system. It is possible for a user to rebuild the kernel and run a custom kernel image instead of the released kernel. You can build the kernel using any recent GCC release using the git tree, tag and defconfig mentioned above. This release only supports booting with device tree, as such both the device tree blobs need to be built as well.

You now need to create a valid boot image with your own kernel build. Please refer to this "wiki":https://github.com/96boards/documentation/wiki/Dragonboard-410c-Boot-Image for detailed instructions to create such a boot image.
