I think that the best way is to run SuSE in one VM and use it
as an FTP or HTTP server with the install tree for another VM.
I assure you, that it is doable just by reading README and
RELEASE-NOTES (I did it when I started with s390).

Disc-to-disk installs are somewhat more difficult. For one
thing, "HD" install requires ISO images (in 7.2), but we do
NOT provide ISOs for download for s390, only trees! The decision
to discard trees support had its merit, but it did not take
s390 into account. There are others hoops you have to jump
to make it working. Also, since it's harder, nobody does it,
so nobody tests it (besides our QA), and it may be buggy.
I suggest sticking with a separate VM and FTP.
