Or just edit your sources.list to include ceres temporarily, install
the new kernel, and then remove ceres and go back to your alpha2.
As fat as I know, installing a completely new kernel doesn't remove
the old one, though you may have to edit some boot files so you
have a choice of kernels when you boot.

I just debianized (in jessie) linux-libre-4.3.5 including all the
modules for the installer:
http://gnuinos.org/kernel/
The sources are taken from:
http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/releases/LATEST-4.3.N/
Add to your sources.list the following line:
deb http://gnuinos.org/kernel/ jessie main
Now import the public key:
# curl http://gnuinos.org/kernel/linux-libre_pk.asc | apt-key add -
I still didn't build the packages for armhf. But i will do that shortly
in my new Raspberry Pi :)
Cheers,
Aitor.
