Not exactly, at least not on my system (7.2, with a kernel package from
the updates):
$ rpm -ql kernel |grep -v /lib/modules
/boot/System.map-2.2.19-4.1mdk
/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.19-4.1mdk
/usr/share/doc/kernel-2.2.19
/usr/share/doc/kernel-2.2.19/kernel-2.2.19-4.1mdk-i586.config

and there's no config file under boot.

So the config file is saved in the documentation directory of that
package.
