Re: What installer images should we provide for s390 and s390x?



Anna

I was reading the way to submit that bug to the support. Apparently I
"should" follow a specific format, but how to install reportbug and sending
the infos properly if I don't have a linux to do that ? I wouldn't see my
mail go to the bin ?

Thanks
Alain
