Because LILO makes reference to the absolute location on disk of the vmlinuz
file (at the far end of the symlink) in the boot code it writes out. Changing
the symlinks makes no difference on its own; LILO knows nothing about ext2fs
file systems or symlinks.

No need to copy .config over; that's just for convenience.
