CentOS Users/Developers:
It interests me to find out if and or when any such CentOS 5 for z/system will be forthcoming?
I use Hercules and would love to play with CentOS under z/system via the Hercules emulator. Funny how my personal mainframe has an "Apple" on it, and is 17" in size, ay? :)
If not, I am curious how difficult it is to generate an entire z/distro from compiling it from source? I was told the source can be compiled via an easy script, but I can't imagine that is true for z/systems.
I am planning on getting a new server for development and such, how hard would this be to create?

Pasi can perhaps give you more details on this, but afaik, C5 does not work with hercules. There were some bugs that were being chased down about 2 years back, but i dont *think* anything has come from it yet.
