Zubuntu? Do you mean Xubuntu?

If you boot to the install CD you can install it....

Please send me the link for .iso of xubuntu and will check whether it is getting installed or not.

There's no z/Architecture (or even s390) port of Ubuntu. There was an unofficial porting attempt back in 2006, but I don't know of anything since.

The link https://launchpad.net/zubuntu says that it is still under development which will port with z/architecture

It hasn't been touched since 2006.

Can you help with this problem?
