      Hello Sampsa!              Wednesday December 23 2015 09:09, you wrote to me:              This is a follow on from my previous msg.              Thinking a little about your problem - I have ommited some points to consider.              1. Is the Linux distro you are running on the host PC/server fully upto date       with all service packs and fixes and is it done on a regular basis?              If not use another one that does!              2. Have you built both the v3 and v4 builds of Hercules so you can test each       one on this distro ?              3. Does the Linux Distro that will run under Hercules fully up to date with       service packs and other fixes again on a regular basis and if there has not       been any or you cannot access them, find another distro.              4. Have you installed all required packages required for C development that       mbse needs?              5. Did you tell the mbse build to make use of all Z optimisations without       going overboard?              6. If there are issues in installing a working C development group of        packages       on items 1 & 3 consider cross compiling on your own box, although that also        has       its issues in that find a GCC compiler that supports the Z platform.              Well thats a starter for 10 .                     Vince               > -=> Vince Coen wrote to Sampsa Laine <=-               VC>> @MSGID: <5676FB94.1645.mbse@b4bbs.com>        VC>> Hello Sampsa!               VC>> Sunday December 20 2015 17:49, you wrote to me:               >> My Debian/390x is down right now because it's really unstable on        >> Hercules and the latest crash corrupted the disk images beyond        >> repair.               >> Once I've rebuilt a SuSE (or something) z/Series box I'll get back        >> to you.               VC>> What verion of Hercules are you running and on exactly what        VC>> platform?
