At the Hercules hardware console, first shutdown VM/370 by entering at the prompt:
/shutdown

And then shutdown the Hercules emulator itself by entering at the prompt:
quit

This VM/370 configuration file has the loading of the MVS-3.8 operating system as the 'first' guest OS commented out.

I think I will try running that (MVS) under VM/370

Hey, if a person is certain to drown, they might as well jump into the deep end of the pool.

PS: It would probably be more practical on a Kindle to run MVS-3.8 on the bare K5/390 hardware (64Mbyte of ram in the K5/390 rather than the maximum of 16Mbyte of ram in the K5/370).
Plus = all of those cpu cycles saved by not running VM/370 just to host a single operating system.

PPS: The emulator reported that it had execute about 58 million instructions to IPL VM/370.

But those comment characters are there to be removed, so . . . .
