Mostly we want to update zImage in boot.img. so suggest you not to go for unpack and repack. just update your custom zImage into defualt boot.img by running this command:
#abootimg -u boot.img -k zImage.
Then try to flash this boot.img in your phone. If you are r changing initrd.img also then you can go for unpacking and repacking
but always take backup of your default boot.img, because if anything gone bad with this custom boot.img then your defuault will help to bring back your phone.

Hi, I'm not sure if I have to flash the kernel partition with the kernel zImage or install the kernel in order to apply it? I am going to recompile the kernel with the swap option enabled, so it's basically a small change. Is there anything that I should know before I do this? How do I flash this? Is odin allright? BTW I have seen that the A2N kernel has a zip rom which is being installed from the cwm recovery. It has the kernel zImage placed as boot.img, in the root of the zip. It's strage to me, because I don't have boot.img in the partition mounted on / on the stock kernel, so where does it go? Or is the modified kernel being swapped with the stock one during boot-time?

Convert your kernel into an Odin flashable zip using 7zip with its highest level of compression in tar format, make sure the file is converted into a .tar file or a .tar.md5 then flash that file via Odin in the AP or PDA slot. You might need to use a modified version of Odin.
