Hello,

on make install I get the this error:

...

sh /work/crazy/linux-git/linux-2.6/arch/i386/boot/install.sh
2.6.22-g4eb6bf6b arch/i386/boot/bzImage System.map "/boot"
/work/crazy/linux-git/linux-2.6/arch/i386/boot/install.sh: line 54:
/etc/lilo/install: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [install] Error 127

...

I don't use and don't have lilo installed on this system. The attached
patch fixes the problem for me.
