While I am glad to see Debian getting some publicity on this list, detailed problems with installation of Debian, even if it's mainframe Debian, might be better addressed on a Debian mailing list. Most of the folks on this list probably run a commercial distribution of Linux on their mainframes and are not interested in detailed installation problems with a distribution that they don't use. I think that debian-s...@lists.debian.org is the best place for this discussion to take place, and I will do my best to assist you over there.
