Bug#329994: base-installer: lilo-installer fails because vmlinuz symlink is not in /

Why the serious severity?  lilo is not the default boot loader, so
this only affect expert installs.

I suggest reassigning this to the lilo package, asking it to generate
a lilo.conf file pointing into /boot/ instead of expecting symlinks in /.
