Probably not....the Linux world seemed easier for me to understand before all 
the "unification" efforts (like grub, systemd, et al).  Just showing my age.  
Thanks for the explanation, Mark.

Thanks,

If you're doing this on a SLES system that's using grub2, I'm not at all sure 
zipl is doing what you think it is. The zipl command is *only* used to re-write 
the block locations for the "grub2 kernel" and "grub2 initrd" that are located 
in /boot/zipl.
