That sounds like it should fit, actually. My Debian image (bz2 compressed CCKD) is only 54M, and there are not really that many Linux/390 distributions out there.
It would be relatively easy to create a Knoppix CD with the Hercules deb installed, include a bunch of DASD images, and add a few icons to the KDE desktop to launch them. No installation required; just boot the CD and click the mouse.
I don't have the time or inclination to work on this, but would be willing to provide assistance with the Debian side of things if someone else does.
