Has anyone tried to use z/OS to serve the install CDs for Linux?

I know that there isn't a CD reader on the mainframe, but it seems that it 
would be just as easy to copy the CDs from a PC to z/OS as it is to copy them 
to a disk on the PC, if you have DFS/SMB configured (which I do).

The problem I have is that we don't have an Intel Linux system that I can put 
the install CDs on.  We also don't have a Windows box with enough disk space.  
All we have are laptops with little RAM and small disks.

I should also note that our operations group says it is too dangerous to use 
the HMC as a file server.
