You can get pretty close to your desired behavior (merge kernel last) if you simple mask kernel package versions greater than the one that is currently installed. |

mkdir -p /etc/portage |

echo ">sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.14-r2" >> /etc/portage/package.mask |

That way, portage will not attempt to upgrade it until you tell it that you are ready, by removing the mask. And yeah, if USE=symlink causes problems, don't use it (in my suggested scenario above it might be useful though). |
