Not at the moment, unless you do everything manually.

Right... I've just run ZILO on your machine; the problem is that the boot
blocks aren't installed. Looking at /tmp/install.log, I see

kernel-vrdr: kernel-vrdr-2.2.19-0.07.s390.rpm
Preparing...

You're running out of diskspace before the kernel can be installed.

The fix is to manually remove packages and/or to use several DASDs (e.g.
put /usr or /usr/lib or /usr/share on a separate DASD).
Our default package selection fits on a normal 2.2GB DASD device; we've
noticed you're using an everything install or a customized setup (you
installed, for example, kde-i18n-*, watanabe-vf and nvi-m17n, none of
which is included in packages.default), then install
kernel-vrdr-2.2.19-0.07.s390.rpm, then run /sbin/zilo

I've fixed this on your machine by removing some i18n packages (picked
those because they don't affect the system functionality); you should be
able to IPL from your DASD now.
