Billy,

 

Why not get some experience with a free version of SUSE 11.2 before you 
implement it on z/VM.  Down load a DVD image of the distro and install it on 
your PC where you can fool around the install before you install SLES 11 to you 
Z system.

        I would like to install Linux on z/VM, but I'm not sure what 
distribution to use. Is there a free version of SuSE or RedHat Linux that I can 
download to do this? Do I need to license a distribution from the vendor (SuSE 
or RedHat)?
        
        
        
        
        Thanks,
        
        
        Billy
