Not to my knowledge (after editing lilo.conf you need to run lilo thats for
sure),  but do check the "default" (0 is the first entry, 1 the second and
so on)  key in grub.conf is pointing to the kernel you want to use.

Check for self compiled kernel modules (RAID controller or NIC modules etc).
Good luck.
