I don't remember having any Stretch installations with fewer than two 
installed kernels. The currently booted one, originally installed 51 weeks 
ago, has 6 installed. I've yet to discover any doc suggesting anything about 
any possibility of automatic removal of old kernels from Debian Testing 
installations.

Could it be that the pae kernel your CF-R3 is running is not the recommended 
kernel for that CPU, and that has something to do with replacement on kernel 
upgrade instead of simply adding new?

Maybe the time is now opportune for an arch upgrade. The supply of devs 
working 32-bit seems to be shrinking quickly towards critical mass. 32-bit 
seems to be soon if not already in process of being removed from Stretch:
