Hi all,

We want to install LINUX on our G5 in LPAR mode.  I have a couple of basic questions...

1)  What LINUX distribution is the most popular for the S390?  
Advantages/disadvantages?

2)  The extra LPAR that we have setup, has an IOCP definition that shares ALL disk 
drives with our 
     OS/390 production LPAR.   How can we ensure that LINUX will not touch our 
production disks?

Thanks in advance!
