All:
What would I have to do to get a distro to run on z/VM? I want to run
Scientific Linux, but there does not appear to be a version for VM. Do I
need to make modifications in the source code and recompile it?
Thanks

Scientific Linux is essentially a more controlled version of Fedora with a
bunch

The greatest weakness I see to a Scientific Linux on a mainframe
Might you mean Gentoo? http://dev.gentoo.org/~vapier/s390/

The greatest weakness I see to a Scientific Linux on a mainframe
(especially under z/VM) is that the workload if heavy on computation--
the resource most shared
Are you thinking of the Gentoo Linux distribution? A lovely environment that
takes days to build given the proper circumstances and mindset

Thank yous to the two folks who were kind enough to remind me of Gentoo.
Hopefully no one will use Naboo as a distro name.

Guys,
I have tested few months ago Debian, including many versions of Fortran
Compiller and other's compilers scientific based. My test was run a
atmospheric prediction system on a z Machine, and the results has very good.
If you need more details, please let me know.
