$ ls /boot/multiboot/
vmlinuz-2.6.28-omap1 vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.05
vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.04 vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06
~ $
although it was working just fine with v46
The flashable kernel image in package kernel-power-bootimg in version 47 is not in /boot/multiboot, it's in /boot and the exact path is /boot/zImage-2.6.28.10-power47 (it doesn't matter for multiboot as it searches every kernel file maching on of patterns /boot/multiboot/vmlinuz-*, /boot/multiboot/zImage-*, but also /boot/vmlinuz-* and /boot/zImage-*). If you do command line install, you should first install "kernel-power kernel-power-modules kernel-power-flasher" packages, wait for it to finish and then (as a second command) install "kernel-power-bootimg" package. Or just open package manager and first instal "Enhanced kernel for power users" and when it instals (as a second operation later) install "Enhanced kernel for power users (bootimg)" package (it's visible in ham and fam beginning with version 47).

After successfull installation you should have:
- file /boot/zImage-2.6.28.10-power47
- directory /lib/modules/2.6.28.10-power47
- file /etc/multiboot.d/01-Maemo-kernel-power-2.6.28.10-power47.item
