Recapitulating with full path, starting from the root (/), for clarity:

The kernels (only for Harmattan and NITdroid because for Nemo it's different) must be placed into /boot directory.
The Ubiboot files (described above) must be placed into /home/user/MyDocs/boot directory

I hope you managed to do that with the good advice people gave you here...]
Thanks a lot for the advice. I was finally able to boot using ubiboot but for some reason it boots into Harmattan even when I pick Nitdroid. I am not sure what to do to resolve this issue. Also where to I find the modules to put in the "/lib/modules" directory. Where can I find instructions to install Nemo. Thanks for all the help.
There is no need, for us, to use the /lib/modules..
For Nemo installation I advise you not to think about it now, but maybe later, after a better understanding of boot of Harmattan/NITdroid.
For NITdroid boot problem: did you put the NITdroid kernel file in the right place?
Did you edited correctly the Ubiboot.conf file?
Did you extracted the NITdroid system files correctly?
