You sure can do this, however you will also need to package the modules
otherwise your kernel is worth very little.
Add /lib/modules'uname -r'/* to the bundle, where uname -r is the
smp-kernel version.

Another thing to remember is that if you copy the smp-kernel to another
machine alongside the modules then you will need to change its RDEV, if of
course the other machine has a different root device than where the kernel
was compiled.

rdev <kernel-image> /dev/hdXx

Xx being hda1 2 3 hdb1 2 3 etc etc..

man rdev
rdev -h
