  link_in_boot not set correctly

Bug description:
  The Linux kernel upgrades for dapper quietly fail because they update
  the initrd.img and vmlinux symlinks in /, but not the ones in /boot
  which yaboot uses.  The result is that after reboot I'm still using
  the old (vulnerable) kernel.

  This copy of dapper was a fresh install just after dapper came out,
  and /etc/yaboot.conf hasn't been altered by hand - it always referred
  to /boot/initrd.img and /boot/vmlinux (and .old symlinks, which don't
  exist).
