GB or Froyo Kernel? - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I'm currently using Epyslon3's CM7.1.0 on 2.2.2 official kernel for my country.
I would like to flash his ICS rom but, I need to flash GB kernel.
I saw a topic on this forum that you cannot downgrade from 2.3.4 kernel.
Does it refers to all 2.3.4 and 2.3.6 kernels depending on a region, or just to that chinese kernel ?
My current kernel is working perfectly, but I don't want to lose downgrade function.
Can someone help me ?

GB kernel to use to try the GB ICS is available either on ICS thread or in the thread in general forum. Search it out
Or you can try Quarx's Froyo kernel build too, no need to change the kernel you are using currently. Check relevant thread here.
And this should be in general or Q&A, not dev forum.

You can downgrade from the gingerbread kernel, but you can't downgrade if you flashed a full gingerbread sbf. So don't worry if you flash a kernel as long as you don't flash a sbf.

So I can flash a nandroid backup and I won't lose the downgrade possibility?

the most stable rom is probably official stock rom from Samsung with no modifications.
check this thread for untouched stock roms that can be flashed using odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011901
or deodexed stock roms also flashed using odin or cwm

flash the deodexed roms if you want to apply other modifications easily using cwm

[Q] Regarding OEX ROM

can anyone inform me which ROM I need to have installed first? 2.3.5 or 2.2?
Thank you.
You need 3.2 kernel. You may upgrade from Tmn stock rom. Use also a 3.2 recovery like 4.0.0.5.
Sorry, I'm a bit confused, don't you mean .32 kernel? Doesn't that mean that I shouldn't upgrade to 2.3.5?
yep 2.2 based rom with .32 kernel. It is the same as oxygen but tweaked. Don't update to 2.3.5 if you want to try this.
alright, thanks!
