Michael, > I'm trying to use Java on a FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE computer, but unfortunately > only Kaffe 1.0.7 is installed (Java 1.1 support).

I've been away for awhile, but last time I checked, you would typically: - enable Linux emulation (if it's not enabled) - install a (binary) Linux JDK - build the native JDK from source - uninstall the binary Linux JDK - disable the Linux emulation (if appropriate) Cheers, Ernst
