Hercules Version 3.13

Host system is openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240803. Given your comment, is that my problem?

Never had a problem with Tumbleweed on Intel/AMD hardware.

But that's not the point: if I have to change to another distro, that can happen.

I need OpenSUSE on Hercules and have so far been unable to install either of these:

    openSUSE-Leap-15.6-DVD-s390x-Build710.3-Media

Months ago, I tried other releases/snap-shots. No joy then either.

I have tried supplying the kernel, INITRD, and parm file via 00C reader. Didn't work. I have also tried Hercules IPL from ".ins" file. After about 4 or 5 minutes, the run consistently ends with something like ...

    T1! ------------ cut here !------------

  ... sometimes followed by (what appears to be) a wait state code, sometimes not. In all cases the emulator stops with a disabled wait.

My preference is OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, but Leap works "if I gotta".

I don't know why you would want to do this to yourself. Tumbleweed is not for the faint of heart, to say the least, and isn't nearly as likely to still be functioning after an update as Leap.
