So, now I've got this S/390 sitting around. I don't have VM, OS/390, or any other "OS" for it, and I definately don't have a tape subsystem for it. I do, however, have the SE laptop inside of the machine which can load 'images' into the machine and IPL them. Is there some way that I can use that to boot a debian installer image? Everything document I've seen wants a running copy of VM or OS/390, or access to a tape subsystem to be able to boot.
And, yes, it's unlikely that I'll be able to get a tape subsystem for it... Thanks for any help. Pat -- Purdue University ITAP/RCS Information Technology at Purdue Research Computing and Storage http://www.itap.purdue.edu/rcs/
