I know it's long, but I recommend that you read the entire web page before starting. There's a lot of material there, and many "gotchas" are documented. If you read the web page first, you will avoid most of the common "gotchas". If you are talking specifically about the hook scripts, what I use is the lynx browser (text mode only) to do the download. Bring up the web page in lynx under Debian for s390. Position to the first download link, then press "d" to download. Exit the browser, become root, move (mv) the file to /etc/kernel/postinst.d, change the group to root (chgrp), the owner to root (chown), and the attributes to 755 (chmod). Revert back to your non-root userid again, run lynx, position to the second download link, type "d" to download, exit lynx again, become root, move the second file to /etc/kernel/postrm.d, and change the group, owner, and attributes as before. Then edit /etc/kernel-img.conf and change do_symlinks to no. There are examples in the web page itself, but they are for the i386 architecture. Slight changes will need to be made in the kernel naming convention for s390 kernels, but other than that the examples in the web page itself should suffice. After reading the entire web page, if you still have specific questions, ask away. -- .''`.
