That mvs cdrom has a cookbook in it (on it), also mirrored on the web at:
http://www.bsp-gmbh.com/turnkey/cookbook/index.html

EDIT:
A very interesting read.
A note to the curious, if you are not already an experienced MVS sysop, you aren't going to boot MVS on a S-390 without reading the directions. ! ! ! ! !

Installers for Linux and Windows, none for the Amazon Kindle.

But should be able to extract all of the IBM OS and files from the iso and "do it by hand".

Duh, your right about the earlier question, I don't know if mvs/390 will run on fat-32 - -
somehow I sort of doubt it.

It also has a tn3270 emulator (you need to have a tcp/ip connection to the emulator on your kindle).

Maybe we should leave installing an IBM OS on the Kindle to someone else.
Your build of the emulator looks like it is working well enough for other people to experiment with.
