|
| here are the steps that i took this morning to get netscape
| with java working through linux emulation.
|
|0. run X in either 8 bit (or 24 bit or 32 bit ???) mode
|1. create /compat/linux/etc and /compat/linux/etc/lib
|2. create /compat/linux/etc/host.conf containing:
| "order hosts, bind"
|3. get the package linux_lib-1.0.tgz from ftp.freebsd.org
| or the 2.10R install cdrom (/packages/All/linux_lib-1.0.tgz)
|4. install the package (pkg_add -v linux_lib-1.0.tgz)
|5. load the linux emulator (modload -e linux_init /lkm/linux_mod.o)
|6. get the linux version of netscape
|7. install it carefully (some parts are)
| /usr/local/netscape/java/classes/moz2_0.zip
| /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB
| /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/nls/{C,nls.dir}
|8. you may get a very large number of console messages
| "syslog() not supported (BSD sigreturn)"
|
| to get rid of these you must
| unload the linux emulator (modunload, use modstat to get the id)
| edit /sys/i386/linux/linux_dummy.c
| comment out the printf on line 195
| recompile /lkm/linux_mod.o
| load the new emulator (5. above)
|
