AFAIK all prepared SFOS ot Nemo filesystem images have the bootable kernel in /boot/bzImage (which then again is a symlink to the actual kernel in same directory)

You can check if it exists correctly for example by mounting your ALT_OS directory in harmattan and looking there:
~ # mount /dev/mmcblk0p4 /mnt/
~ # ls -la /mnt/boot/

The mount command does not create any partitions, it just makes a pre-created partition available to you at certain location.
If you have created your ALT_OS partition (mmcblk0p4) using the default splitter script on the Moslo or ubiboot repair console, then the size of the partition is 4GB which is well suitable for SFOS installation.

I rather suspect something went wrong for you when you extracted the FS image to your partition.
