If you're right, so

1. kernel is the same for Mini, Glo and "low cost" Touch
2. their kernel is the uImage file

if so, there's a bug in the update script.
Yes.

But we can't be 100% sure. uImage could be the kernel for Mini and Touch. Glo kernel could be remained unchanged, so it didn't need an upgrade. That's why I asked you if in previous firmware packages there was an uImage-E606B0 image file.
I have never seen a Glo specific kernel file. And I have a statement from Kobo that the Mini, Touch N905c and Glo share the same kernel.

I can't see what recovery uImage contains:

PHP Code:
# mkdir /mnt/recovery-fs
# mkdir /mnt/recovery-kernel/
# mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /mnt/recovery-fs
# mount -t ext4 -o loop /mnt/recovery-fs/upgrade/ntx508/uImage /mnt/kernel-recovery/
mountmounting /dev/loop0 on /mnt/kernel-recoveryfailedInvalid argument 
It should be an older version of the kernel that matches the rest of the firmware package used for the factory reset.
