Hmmm. There are no .iso images for the Red Hat Linux/390 or zLinux distributions. Only individual binary RPM files. Also, the Linux/390 version is 7.2, not 7.1. So, that leads me to believe that what you're seeing is the result of trying to load Intel kernel modules on an ELF-s390x system. The binary magic number is different to distinguish between architectures. If you go to ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/s390x/ you can download the Beta code for Red Hat's zLinux distribution. I don't believe they've assigned it a version number yet.

(VM type linux image) (64 bit, hence s390x). I have downloaded the iso images and used FTP type installaion. After the FTP info is given I see "retrieving RedHat/base/netstg1.img" for a while and then I get the error: ""Error mounting /dev/loop0 on /mnt/runtime (Device or resource busy). This shouldn't happen, and I'm rebooting you system now." On the x3270 console I could see the following lines: /tmp/raid1.o: ELF file /tmp/raid1.o not for this architecture /tmp/xor.o: ELF file /tmp/xor.o not for this architecture /tmp/raid5.o: ELF file /tmp/raid5.o not for this architecture >From the mailing list all I infer is a suggestion that the files might have been corrupt. Has any one come across a similar scenario or does any one have suggestions/solutions?
