I imagine it's possible to port Linux to z/OS. I'm thinking here of the user-mode-linux model, where the kernel's "hardware" is provided in the host OS. It would need tty devices, those could be implemented via telnet (or maybe ssh for the security-conscious). DASD, to run from, could be a VSAM dataspace or dataset. Imagine //penguin exec pgm=linux,parm='netconsole=....' //boot dd dsn=penguin.boot,disp=shr //root dd dsn=penguin.root,disp=shr //home dd vol=ref=penguin.home,disp=old An entire disk //* more DASD //sysprint dd sysout=* kernel log //sysin dd * more kernel/initrd parms /*
