PS: I have lost connectivity to UPDATE again. And this time rebooting my

I cah't reach various parts of HECnet right now, including area 1.
It appears from here that SG1 might be down or unreachable but I don't think
that accounts for all that seems to be wrong.
Psilo, running the bridge at Update had restarted. Kicked the bridge. All should be ok now.

And here we are:
Good times.

Hello!
Go ahead. The Debian S/390 installer is almost a friendly penguin so
you should be okay.

I just checked Amazon and they didn't have any z-series boxes for reasonable prices.
Also the power and cooling would kinda suck, methinks.
A z890, for example, only pulls about 1.5kW. Not bad for a 64-bit
mainframe with big hairy balls.

Hello!
Correct. That is what I had heard a while back.

I think it sounds like lots of fun. It'd be even MORE fun if you're
able to do it on real hardware.

Hello!
Given time Amazon will be (trying to) sell everything. Now start
looking for managed and not managed networking gear and you'll see
the amazing roadblocks I need to surmount from time to time.
Someone in there is selling a pair of HP gadgets that I might buy RSN.
Or will if when I'm ready he's still got them.

Hello!
I agree. That's why I offered to invite in a matter of speaking Sampsa
to join the H390-MVS group.
Now Dave why are you now allowing those yetis to pose for pictures as
representatives of the big foot family? They are above that
legend......

"Since Debian Squeeze, support for booting in ESA/390 mode was dropped.
Your machine needs to support for at least the z/Architecture, Architecture
Level Set 2."
That really, really sucks. That means most of the worlds operational
mainframes (the ones that will eventually be rotated out of service and
be available to people like us) won't run it.
I take this to mean that Debian no longer runs on a real S/390 machine but
requires a zSeries of some sort.
Well, they're still very much "real S/390 machines" in every way.
Does that work with Hercules?
Yes, Hercules implements both version of the z/Architecture.
