	Why not just set 
------------------------------------------------------------------
image_dest=/boot
do_bootloader=NO
relative_links=YES
-----------------------------------------------------------------
        in /etc/kernel-img.conf?

       image_dest
              If  you  want  the  symbolic  link  (or  image,  if
              move_image is set) to be stored in elsewhere than /
              set this variable to the dir  where  you  want  the
              symbolic  link.   Please  note  that  this is not a
              Boolean variable.  This may be of help  to  loadlin
              users,   who  may  set  both  this  and  move_image
              Defaults to / This can be used in conjunction  with
              all above options except image_in_boot, which would
              not   make   sense.   (If   both   image_dest   and
              image_in_boot are set, image_in_boot overrides).
       do_bootloader
              If  set  to  NO,  this  prevents  the postinst from
              running the boot loader.  The  user  may  still  be
              asked  to  create a floppy, unless do_bootfloppy is
              also set to NO. Defaults to Yes.
       relative_links
              If set to yes, the  kernel  image  postinst  script
              shall  go  to extra ordinary lengths to ensure that
              the symbolic  links  are  relative.  Normally,  the
              symbolic  links  are  relative  when  it  is easily
              determinable  that  relative  links   shall   work.
              efaults to No.
