from memory mate, should be something like this for flashing just kernel:
sudo flasher-3.5 -k "KERNEL NAME" -f -R
remove " from kernel name.
will blink and say done and phone will restart.
make sure upper/ lower case is correct as case sensitive.

I am guessing a little mate as not using these and really zip idea about this sort of stuff, so just trying to assist.
I imagine the vmlinuz file name will need to match the item name though vmlinuz- infront, what is inside that file that may require changing ? open with wordpad or leafpad etc and have a look, apply common sense and see if anything that refers to power37 and change to 39. Also do the same with .item file as previously noted.
If all else fails, try reinstall. Will not boot with these mods until the 39 kernel is install and those files matching.

ps: i already updated to v.39titans follow the step from Coffe and your step then now flash back the default kernel. any step to check ?
What do you mean by flash back the default kernel?
Originally the default kernel was in place. You then flashed a new kernel over the top replacing it and what you want I expect (power 39). The .item file etc you are editing is telling multiboot to look for power39 in this place, file type etc. If you flash the default back over you will overwrite the power39 and hence the standard kernel. So these modded .item file etc will not find the power39 as no longer exists.
That is if I am following this correctly?

No, don't have it installed mate.
Which kernel and from where did you get it? I thought the power kernel in reference was titan's which I think is in repo's and downloaded via OTA?
So wouldn't have thought you need to flash that via flasher.
Previously when I installed multiboot for running NITDroid I did install the powerkernel37 by extracting it on the phone as directed:
cd /home/user/MyDocs
wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/...power37.tar.gz
cd /
tar xzvf /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot-power37.tar.gz

So if the powerkernel you have is as this, compressed .tar.gz
just follow these steps though with the altered name.

Hi,

I have vmlinuz-2.6.28-omap1 and vmlinuz-2.6.28.10power37 in /boot/multiboot and following items in /etc/multiboot.d/:
Code:
# Maemo-2.6.28-omap1.item
ITEM_NAME="Maemo 2.6.28-omap1"
ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28-omap1
ITEM_MODULES=ext3

# Maemo-2.6.28.10power37.item
ITEM_NAME="Maemo 2.6.28.10power37"
ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.10power37
ITEM_MODULES=ext3
Now if I try to select either one of those from multiboot I just get Nokia logo for a few seconds and then the device shuts itself. Only way I can boot is with 0 or B. Any ideas why?

I would start by reinstalling multiboot and then reinstall the kernel again. Maybe the Multiboot has an issue or not installed correctly, you're saying the boot menu isn't come up at all right?

what i did to update kernel from v37 with multiboot and NITDROID was:

download
-kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb (1st)
-kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb (2nd)
-kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb (3rd)

then

-run xterm
-sudo gainroot
-dpkg -i location/of/file (intsall them the consecutively as shown above)

Then Edit ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.10power37 to ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.10power39
and
extract the zImage-2.6.28-maemo39.fiasco file from kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb
rename to vmlinuz-2.6.28.10power39 and copy it to /boot/multiboot folder and reboot device...WHICH IS WILL NOT BOOT TO multiboot and just boot to NOKIA screen and Shutdown, and eventually i have to reflash using -flash-only=kernel -f -R
