Hi, Billy.
Yes, both vendors offer "free" trial downloads of their respective Linux
distributions for z/VM. You can download and install SLES 11 and/or RHEL
5.4 directly from their web sites; you should be able to follow the
links off of their home pages.
There are other, non-commercial Linxu distributions available for z/VM,
including Centos and Debian as well. They're really 'free'.....
Good luck.

I would like to install Linux on z/VM, but I'm not sure what distribution to
use. Is there a free
version of SuSE or RedHat Linux that I can download to do this? Do I need to
license a
distribution from the vendor (SuSE or RedHat)?
Thanks,
Billy
