I do not know the purpose of that "auto selection" of a "primary" kernel on the next boot.
Your machine __probably__ did do a clean shutdown, but when it was next booted - that "flag file" + the custom kernel did not work.
Not being familar with this situation - all I can think of is to break out of whatever is happening.
If there is an "uninstall" for the custom kernel - maybe try getting rid of it.
Note in /etc/inittab that the default runlevel is 2
Read through /etc/rc2.d/* links to ../init.d/* to find out how that "flag file" is being used.
Maybe PM the author of that custom kernel, ask the author for advice.
Hmm...
I have been assuming that you have an off-Kindle copy of the file system to look through.
If not - then maybe someone can give you a link to where to get a copy.
Copies are not directly available at this web-site, but members here can PM you where to get a copy.
