Can't you just do away with the partition? Unmount it move everything to the root filesystem but still under /boot, re-install grub & use Fdisk to change the boot flag over. Linux has not needed /boot on a separate partition for a long time now and using symlinks is messy.

This assumes that / is on a primary partition. If not, it is no go.
I have not used a separate /boot partition in years and I always set up
my / partition as a logical(extended) partition, on my 10.1 system it is
a ReiserFS and on 10.2 (64) it is Ext3. There are some valid reasons to
have a separate /boot so I am not advocating having or not having one.
