Is that if you do your own or if you use mksles9root? I'm using mksles9root. It makes the directories. I had the s390 versions out there. It wanted me to remove them so it could create the s390x (not the author of the code, so I don't know why).
Since there didn't seem to be a command switch, I thought there might be a "change this piece of code" to do what I want. I guess the way the current mksles9root works is that you rebuild from the iso images each time you want to switch from 31 bit to 64 bit and back. That might make some sort of sense if the iso images may be refreshed by some offline or unattended process. But it still takes a while to setup.

I have my iso files in /data/suse/sles9/s390/ and /data/suse/sles9/s390x/ on my install server (the correct ones for each architecture) and so I have the install directory path as either /data/suse/sles9/s390/sles9root/ or /data/suse/sles9/s390x/sles9root/.
