man up2date

<snippet>
‐d, ‐‐download
download  packages  only,  do  not install them.  This option is
provided so that you can override the configuration  option  "Do
not install packages after retrieval."  It is mutually exclusive
with the ‐‐install option.

Just update what you want updated, skipping the kernel, and then issue
up2date again with the appropriate handlers [ ie. up2date -fd )
