Is there someway to keep the older kernel in /boot and have new entries for new kernel in menu.lst while keeping old entries intact?

If I interpreted correctly this will not work as OP wants. (the kernel won't be upgraded this way). Besides extracting and copying manually, I don't see any other option...
