Matt,
The Virtualization Cookbook has always recommended NFS as the install
protocol. So if you want to follow that as closely as possible, I'd
recommend z/OS NFS over Windows SFTP. I have never installed a zLinux from
a z/OS NFS server, but I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't work.
You'd want the mount to be in binary so there is no attempt at ASCII-EBCDIC
translation, but I believe that's the default.
Hope this helps.
