I'm seeing more and more about running TAO Linux on S390.  The problem:  the website 
www.taolinux.org does not explain how to install it on a S390 system.  The 
installation instructions say to burn a BOOT ISO and boot the machine.  Ummm.. how do 
you do that on a z800? 

I've seen the exact same thing with gentoo, you already need a running Linux (RedHat, 
Marist or SuSE) to use as a driving system to get the other Linux systems up. I am 
used to punching the install kernel, parm file and initrd into the virtual reader and 
IPLing. 

I dont' see these options on TAO, so how is the install accomplished?  In my opinion, 
if a S390 is to made available, then there needs to be a clear and documented 
installation procedure that doesn't rely on a driving [pre-existing] Linux system.
