Hello,
The Fedora s390x team is pleased to announce a first preview of Fedora 11 for s390x in form of a prebuilt hercules image and as a tarball which can be unpacked on a free DASD of your z9 or z10. We currently have ~11600 binary packages of Fedora 11/s390x and are working on getting real boot images.
Hercules images with instructions can be downloaded from http://secondary.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/spins/S390/
Individual packages are available at https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=rawhide&arch=s390x
More info will be added in the next few days at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/s390x
If you're interested, please join our mailing list at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fedora-s390x or our IRC channel #fedora-s390x on freenode.net
Regards
Karsten Hopp, s390x secondary arch maintainer fedora-s390x@lists.fedoraproject.org

From the mails I get on failed build attempts, some of the OOo s390x
dependencies seem to be giving trouble, so FWIW some time ago I built a "vanilla" upstream set of s390x packages, available at ftp://qa-upload.services.openoffice.org/3.1.0_s390x/ which should at least prove that it can be built and work for s390x
