Actually, I guess that the boot directory doesn't need to be named /boot, as
long as the correct path is specified in the boot configuration.  This may be
incorrect; however, the reason I say this is because linuxconf lilo boot
configuration requires the name of the kernel image file as well as the
directory path, at least when linuxconf isn't run in or from the /boot
directory, or the directory the kernel image(s) are located in.

Otherwise, if /boot is strictly required, then I don't know why linuxconf would
require for the directory to be specified.

Is there are slight inconsistency or discrepancy in this sense, or is there a
valid technical reason I'm not aware of?

Anyone know?
