It's a good idea.  Let's look at some part of the text below:

Is it possible to change this part for something like:

Look for the following lines in the
/usr/local/bin/sapgui/6.30rev2/bin/guistart file:

# SuSE 7.3 installs its 1.3 VM here 
PLATIN_JAVA="/usr/lib/jre1.3/jre/bin/java" 
PLATIN_JAVA_VER="1.3.0"

then add this:

# FreeBSD 4.8
elif /usr/compat/linux/usr/bin/test -x "/usr/local/linux-blackdown-jdk1.3.1/jre/bin/java" ; then 
PLATIN_JAVA="/usr/local/linux-blackdown-jdk1.3.1/jre/bin/java" 
PLATIN_JAVA_VER="1.3.1"

Tell me what do you think about it?  (I do have the revelant file under
hand, so I dunno if it could work...)

Another question does it runs under FreeBSD 4.9 and 5.2-RC as well?
