So, kernel source is available for that kernel...but, the only downloads I can find for it are 2.6.32 not 3.0.8+ which looks like it was built from a git clone somewhere because of the +.
You could probably do a chroot. Native booting would be another beast all together.
What I would probably do would be to crack it open and see if you can find a serial port header somewhere on the board. Find out what uboot commands are supported. See if you can redirect the current kernel to boot to /dev/mmc0p0 or /dev/sda1
If you're incredibly lucky, you'll have mmcload, tftpboot, or usb support in uboot that you can slip your own kernel in.
In my experience, getting alarm on a tablet can be a huge PITA!
