I'm not sure what you're asking.  The kernel is just another package, as far
as the package management system is concerned.  It is updated the same way
all packages are:

   aptitude update
   aptitude full-ugrade

This of course assumes that you have internet and security sources defined
in /etc/apt/sources.list.  (And, for the stable release, the volatile
source as well.)
