Hello, I never used Slack 390, but on SLES, I usually run mkinitrd to rebuild the initial ramdisk image (cd /boot prior to run the command), then I run the zipl command.
On older SLES version, I used to edit by hand the content of the /etc/zipl.conf file to list all of my devices. I hope this helps.
