SLES12 update using zypper. Reboot system and lost first boot menu. Ran mkinitrd and zipl but menu did not return although messages stated they were rebuilt! Executed: grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg grub2-zipl-setup Using config file ‘/boot/zipl/config’ (from command line) Building bootmap in ‘/boot/zipl’ Building menu ‘menu’ Adding #1: IPL section ‘grub2’ (default) Adding #2: IPL section ‘skip-grub2’ Preparing boot device: dasdf (15c0). Done. ---

I found the solution! The update has modified the file /etc/default/zipl2grub.conf.in. I change two values: plymouth.enable=0 to plymouth.enable=1 prompt = 0 to prompt = 1. Then executed grub2-zipl-setup I would expect that this is a defect because this menu is specific to the behavior of this operation system. A update should never modify an expected behavior. ---
