Did you boot the stock nokia maemo kernel in-between to get the uboot-kernel-power to actually start uboot? Or did you go to Android?
You have to boot another kernel to enable multiboot to reflash the uboot kernel.

To make things clear i'll go step by step. I first downloaded the prebuild file ( zImage-power48-ubootMod.7z) sent to me by fabry and saved it in the /boot/Multiboot and renamed it to "vmlinuz-2.6.28.10-power48) then i restarted the system back in Maemo Original Kernel.
Again Restarted and this time booted in "Maemo kernel-power 2.6.28.10-power48" then again restarted the phone and just kept the Key board open but the timer never timed out and phone turns off on timer reaching 7.

You did not mention Meego, is it installed? I ask, because with open keyboard all the way you should boot Meego, not maemo. To boot maemo you should power on with keyboard in, then slide it out when 'kernel loading' is displayed. The auto-boot of maemo with power kernel will only work on keyboard all the way in!

To start from Scratch i have reinstalled the kernel Power and Kernel Power Flasher.

Now in my /Boot/Multiboot i have below files

.Multiboot.item
.multiboot.log
.multiboot.log.1
.multiboot.log.2
.multiboot.log.3
.multiboot.log.4
.multiboot.log.5
.multiboot.log.6
vmlinuz-2.6.28-omap1
vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06
vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.07
zImage-2.6.28.10-power48.fiasco

Since i have upgraded the Kernel for android the "vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06" is not more bootable

Now what should i do with the file from Fabry.

Nop the Meego is yet not installed i was going as per Fabry's step and hence had to reflash kernel and so will activate/install u-boot

Start the power kernel from the multiboot menu, if that fails you have to boot into maemo kernel and set up the /etc/multiboot.d/ item and copy your uboot custom kernel to /boot/multiboot and rename it according to the multiboot standard

So you mean i first copy the custom kernel file "zImage-power48-ubootMod.7z" to /boot/multiboot folder and delete the existing kernel boot image "zImage-2.6.28.10-power48.fiasco" and rename the custom kernel file to vmlinuz-2.6.28.10-power48 and then boot to power kernel, right?

Nope!
Please make sure what you got from Fabry. Ask him or figure it out yourself.
My guess is: Unpack the 7z archive, copy the resulting file to /boot/multiboot and rename it vmlinuz-2.6.28.10-power48, create a file or copy your existing kernel-power item in /etc/multiboot.d, this file could be called 01-Maemo-kernel-power-2.6.28.10-power48.item containing the following
Code:
ITEM_NAME="Maemo kernel-power 2.6.28.10-power48"
ITEM_KERNEL="2.6.28.10-power48"
ITEM_MODULES="ext3"
Then flash the kernel from your PC, i guess you know how to make the device ready for flashing.
Code:
flasher-3.5 -f -k zImage-power48-ubootMod -R

Thanks . got you. I have extracted the file and copied it to MULTIBOOT Folder and renamed it.
now i am in the /etc/miltiboot.d and i already have 01-Maemo-kernel-power-2.6.28.10-power48.item which i think executes the zImage-2.6.28.10-power48.fiasco ( Existing Image file for Power Kernel 48)do i need to make another copy of the item file or leave this item file as it is and just remove the "zImage-2.6.28.10-power48.fiasco"

I am not a programmer at all hence doing things as per the guidance provided by people like you and trying to understand on what ever i do.
