ZSystems

Welcome to the ZSystems edit

openSUSE for LinuxONE is on its way!

Due to the demand for an open z Systems distribution, we started to build the architecture s390x on the Open Build Service. Currently, only the project openSUSE:Factory is prepared to build. Find the Project page at openSUSE:Factory:zSystems.

Please join the opensuse-zSystems mailing list as well as the #openSUSE-zSystems IRC channel for questions or help.
