installing s390x on hercules

[KURASHIKI Satoru]

hi,

I've tried to install debian wheezy s390x on hercules, but
I can't boot it.

Please tell me correct procedure to do so.

My steps are:
1. Basically, I follow the instruction of this page:
   http://www.josefsipek.net/docs/s390-linux/hercules-s390.html

   * I use daily d-i image 
(http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/s390x/daily/generic/)
 and choose expert mode to get shell prompt.

2. installer fails to find proper kernel. so I've dropped to shell prompt, and 
do:
   # /target/usr/sbin/chroot /target /bin/bash
   # apt-get install linux-image-s390x
   # exit

3. continue without bootloader (There is not another option...)

4. after rebooting, I command ipl 120 and get error:
 HHCCP048I 0120:CCW=0300 0001=0006 000F 0300 0001 
 
 HHCCP075I 0120:Stat=0E00 Count=0001
 HHCCP076I 0120:Sense=8000 0002    
 HHCCP077I 0120:Sense=CMDREJ
 HHCCP029E z/Arch mode IPL failed: CSW status=0E00
Sense=8000 0002     
 0080 

I guess that I have to edit s390.cnf to specify device correctly, but how?
(after passing this, I will be blocked by bootloader issue...)

The very latest daily at the place you found should select a bootloader and a
kernel. It was broken until this weekend. A blog post shall appear on
planet.d.o about that work in the next days.

I did not test it in hercules though. The netcfg link detection timeout will be
fixed with the next daily.

Kind regards
