I increased the kernel zimage flash available to 4mb on an Intel SS4000E (iop32x) by reconfiguring the flash with fconfig, deleting the unused parts used by the stock firmware. This enabled me to upgrade the kernel to v3.2.
This does need serial console access as Ben says but that is true whatever kernel you want to flash.
