Hi, just to let you know further, I downloaded jdk-1_5_0_12-linux-i586.bin from Sun to see if I could unpack it and apply your patches. I tried installing it under FreeBSD 4.8 and got about this far: me@pair.com> ./jdk-1_5_0_12-linux-i586.bin ...[lots of stuff]... Creating jdk1.5.0_12/jre/lib/plugin.jar Creating jdk1.5.0_12/jre/lib/javaws.jar Creating jdk1.5.0_12/jre/lib/deploy.jar Bad system call (core dumped) Done. How can I get a JDK working on FreeBSD? Could you please provide some URLs on the project pages indicating what to download? thank you! >Date: Sat, 11 Aug 2007 13:47:21 -0400 >To: glewis@FreeBSD.org, freebsd-java@FreeBSD.org >From: Steve Strassmann <steve@strassmann.com> >Subject: trouble getting and installing FreeBSD-Java > > >Hi, I'm trying to install FreeBSD Java on my pair.com >account (dedicated, not shared server) running FreeBSD 4.8 > >I visited http://www.freebsd.org/java/install.html but there >are no instructions or links for where to download your port. > >I was specifically hoping to download the native JDK on FreeBSD, >what is the download URL? > >I visited http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/index.html, >but there is no contact info, and again, no download URLs. > >I visited http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk15.html. >It suggests I can download JDK 1.5 from Sun.
