I don't know if it is possible to flash even the bootloader... Looking a bit into source code, there are several kontron patches both for drivers and kernel boot. I'm trying to KOntron kernel into OE using Kontron toolchain, but without success..

With the reported problem, it would help if you understand or at least could tell where to find the details on the boot loader. Ideally, you would want to boot loader to be buildable from source instead of relying on some binary on flash.
