AFAIK, the installation doesn't really do this indeed. In my case, I don't
use a symlinked kernel, so I have to manually edit /etc/lilo.conf each
time I change from kernel version (eg from 2.2.16 to 2.2.17), but not when
I recompile the same kernel version because I was stupid enough to forget
to check some break_all_if_you_forget_this checkbox.
