This would also fail when you try to install a kernel into a chroot and
s390-tools happens to be installed (which might be unusual, though).
Maybe, as this error comes from zipl, it would make sense to guard the
zipl invocation by checking for the config file presence first?

#!/bin/sh
if [ -f /etc/zipl.conf ]
then
  exec zipl </dev/null >&2
fi

Kind regards,
