Nope. This is the real deal, meaning we're currently getting s390x
ready as an official secondary arch for Fedora again. It took quite a
bit of time and lots of politics/religion. Right now only a few minor
things missing (like a proper spot for our secondary arch koji hub)
until we're set in regard to infrastructure. Technically as you can see
we're pretty close to being done. There are only a few hundred build
failures remaining, some anaconda, NetworkManager and parted work needs
to be done but other than that it's working.


Has anyone done a Windows version of the Hercules image??   As in the .init
and .cfg files and a brief howto ??



At least i haven't looked into that yet. You might find more info how to
do that on in the hercules docu and/or forums i suspect, but it
shouldn't be too hard. As long as you don't need any external connection
for your guest it's easy as you can simply connect to the interface via
putty from your local machine.

How to set up NAT/Bridging/ProxyARP on Windows though i have no clue.

Yes, there definitely is a Windows version of Hercules.  It's linked
from the Hercules home page.

Works pretty much like the Linux version.

Once it works, maybe...  If I may judge from the threads on the

Networking on the Windows version isn't terrible, but it's a bit trickier than 
the Linux version.  If you use LCS, and have all the pieces in place, it works 
well enough.  The documentation isn't very good though.

I have it on my laptop here under Vista.

I run the same OS images on both my laptop (Vista), and a dedicated machine at 
home that runs Fedora 9.  I move the disk image files back and forth as needed.

I change one line in the Hercules config file to switch between hosts.

Yes, Winpcap is required, and under Vista, you have to run Hercules as 
administrator, but otherwise, it's pretty straightforward.
