Maybe. I know I've been doing it that way for a couple of years, on
several boxes, without a problem. It should only copy the kernel,
System.map and config to /boot, and make the necessary symlinks to save
altering grub.conf. I believe it also runs lilo if necessary, but I
don't use lilo so I can't confirm that.
