They can not be interchanged.

In fact, you could forget about ever loading the "diag" system (unless you plan to screw up the "main" system in the future).
Well, I finally found the problem related to the kernel load, in the Youtube tuto that I followed (linked in the first post) I set the variable bootmode to diags with the next command:
Code:
./fastboot setvar bootmode diags
Thats why the uImage was only working for me more or less when I flashed It to the diags_kernel partition. For correcting the problem, I changed again the variable bootmode to its original value: kernel
Code:
./fastboot setvar bootmode kernel
After that I erased the diags_kernel partition:
Code:
./fastboot erase diags_kernel
Flash the uImage to the kernel partition and send a reboot directive:
Code:
./fastboot flash kernel uImage
./fastboot reboot
And finally I was capable to access to the recovery menú:
Code:
[    1.572387] panel_get_upd_modes: Unknown waveform mode. Using MODE_07!
Press [ENTER] for recovery menu...       0 /

3. Load MMC over USB storage
4. Erase MMC
I. Initialize Partition Table (fdisk) and format FAT
O. Format and overwrite FAT partition
E. Export FAT partition
U. Update using update*.bin file on FAT partition
M. Update using update*.bin file on FAT partition of second MMC port
D. dmesg / kernel printk ring buffer.
Q. quit
Choose:  10 /
Ok, this is my situation up to now, I'll continue reading the MadMAXXX thread and reporte my progress.
