Since this is a s390 install I don't have access to a DVD on the
mainframe.  I would like to move the appropriate files/folders to the
SuSE Linux partition to populate the DASD with the CentOS Linux.  What
file/folders do I need to create an IPLable CentOS disk?  How do I
transfer this to the disk?



A quick how to would be great.

Did you check the Red Hat website for RHEL documentation?

I can't give you specifics, but I'd expect that once you have found
something to IPL and get into Anaconda, that you can install directly
from the ISO image. I believe you also have options on controlling it
via VNC and may telnet and/or ssh.
