Question regarding kernel - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am currently on official Froyo 2.2 version. If I want to update kernel based on Froyo 2.2.1 should I update Froyo first (Base ROM + CSC + Modem) or I can update only kernel on my official Froyo 2.2?
How it works? What is difference between Base ROM, CSC, Modem and Kernel?
Thanks.

[Q] Is there a Tayutama Edition ROM for Froyo?

I've only found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808763
but I can't see if that ROM is based on the official Froyo version?
And if it is, do I need to flash my firmware to Froyo before flashing to this ROM?

resolved

Samsung Stock Eclair 2.1
Samsung Stock Froyo 2.2 / 2.2.1
Darky's ROM v6.x or v7.x
Most other Custom ROMs
If you are unsure on what version you are, check "Settings >> About >> Firmware/Software version".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Under firmware version it just says 2.1-update1... So how do I know which one I have?
edit
2.1 = eclair.
2.1 = Eclair
You have Samsung Stock Eclair 2.1 mate
You can directly upgrade it to custom roms like darky and Doc or you can flash the stock XXJPY froyo 2.2.1 rom

Again: How can I get my stock JPP rom for my SGS after installing a custom ROM?

Hello guys,
before installing Darky's roms, I had a rooted and OCLF-fixed SGS, with stock I9000XXJPP Italian firmware, build RSJP5.
Then, I tried to look for a stock JPP rom, or atleast the same I had when I first bought my phone... I installed the K9 Rom

And now there is an Italian update for my SGS, with Kies. Many SGS users updated their phones to this 2.2.1 stock firmware, but I don't know if I can update my firmware using this rom I already have (the K9).
If not, what should I do to get my stock rom (I9000XXJPP - FROYO.RSJP5) to install the new 2.2.1 Froyo version with Kies?

Question about rom

I have seen ppl post rom version XWJS7/8 and ZSJPG etc...
Just wonder what is the different between those rom?
A comes before B and is therefore an earlier development of the rom .Plus rom bty area .
XWJS8 is the current latest version of Froyo 2.2.1 and the best its a Europe rom .
ZSJPG is rom Froyo 2.2.1 for Asia

[Q] How do I know if a Samsung's stock firmware is compatible with Semaphore Kernel

I want to update my firmware to a stock 3.5.6.
I would also like to install kernel Semaphore 2.5.0.
But, I've noticed in the Semaphore kernel thread that not all firmwares are compatible.
How do I know if the latest firmwares presented in Sams Firmwares are compatible?
For example, the latest roms from March 2012:
I9000XXJW4 (UK)
I9000XWJW3 (Portugal)
