As far as I can tell you are trying to install an newer version of debian (or any other linux distribution) using your up and (natively e.i. in LPAR mode) running debian system?
If this is the case check the debian installation manual at http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/s390/install paragraph 3.7 'Installing Debian GNU/Linux from a Unix/Linux System'. This should help you to get you on your way!
