Indeed you need flash-kernel package.
If you have boot.cmd instead of boot.scr and also don't have
flash-kernel package, you must upgrading and running a FreedomBox image
from many releases ago.
To fix the situation,
1. Take backup of your SD card.
2. Make sure /boot is ext2fs and not vfat.
3. Install flash-kernel. This will create the proper /boot/boot.scr
file with a line like "setenv fk_kvers '4.8.0-2-armmp-lpae'".
4. Optionally set /etc/flash-kernel/machine to "Olimex
A20-OLinuXino-LIME2" (depending on your board). This should not be
required as flash-kernel will properly detect the machine when you are
running it from within the machine.
4. Move /boot/boot.cmd to /boot/boot.cmd.bak.
5. Reboot and check that boot happens properly.
If you already have flash-kernel package and /boot/boot.scr, then simply
moving /boot/boot.cmd should fix the situation.
