Probably I misconfigured it.  With hercules 3.06-1.3, I tried
"ARCHMODE z/Arch" in the configuration file; the lenny installer
(which uses a 32-bit kernel) succeeded but the squeeze installer
(which uses 64-bit) failed.  From

  http://www.hercules-390.org/hercconf.html#ARCHMODE

I see that the IPL always uses ESA/390 mode, so I can’t tell from the
log whether this setting had the right effect.

I’ll try spending more time to track it down with Hercules 3.07
this weekend.  This time I can just install the new kernel on a
working system to rule out other variables.

Hmph.  Appears to be confused [1].  I’ve been receiving your messages
through the Debian git packaging list, but the log as retrieved through
http://bugs.debian.org and request@bugs.debian.org doesn’t include them.
