Many Linux-related sites duplicate information and others focus on specific issues. The links
below go to sites that we feel are important and useful web sites.
Linuxvm.org
This site contains lots of information about running Linux on mainframes. Linuxvm.org was
conceived as a companion web site for the Linux-390 mailing list that is hosted by Marist
College. Gzip compressed copies of the mailing list, items of interest from the mailing list,
technical and management presentations, 900+ links to articles, etc. are available.
Linux-390 Mailing
List
This is the web interface to the archives of the Linux-390 mailing list that is hosted by
Marist College. This mailing list was where the original, non-IBM Open Source project to port
Linux to the mainframe started in 1998. Today, it where most of the discussion about Linux on
the mainframe takes place. It is "inhabited" by most of the experts on this platform, and is a
great place to get help. You can subscribe by scrolling down to the bottom of the page and
filling in the web form.
