We have a student in Red Hat Brno who will work on RPM-based kernels as his bachelor thesis and it should include an improvement in grubby to use the flash-kernel utility (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=548422) Debian is developing and using to actually flash the kernel to a supported range of devices. We think the kernel installation workflow could be very similar to the one used on x86.
