On x86-64 it can be almost totally different (by restoring a hibernation image we replace the entire contents of RAM with almost no constraints). [Well, using a relocatable kernel for restoring an image with nonrelocatable one or vice versa is rather not the best idea, but everything else should work in theory.] On i386 the boot kernel is still required to be the same as the one in the image.
