Installing Java 1.4.2 SDK, the quick and dirty way.

NOTE THAT THERE ARE LICENSING ISSUES WITH JAVA TECHNOLOGIES FROM SUN.COM AND FreeBSD -- IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO RECONSILE THESE AS THEY PERTAIN TO YOUR USE OF JAVA

You will need:

1. about 2 gigs free disk space. Check that you have this by running df

2. to update your ports tree -- see cvsup and Updating_the_ports_tree

3 to download the following files:

bsd-jdk14-patches-6.tar.gz from | Eyesbeyond.com
j2re-1_4_2_06-linux-i586.bin from Sun's j2se JRE page
j2sdk-1_4_2-bin-scsl.zip from This page at sun.com
j2sdk-1_4_2-mozilla_headers-unix.zip from This page at sun.com
j2sdk-1_4_2-src-scsl.zip from This page at sun.com
j2sdk-1_4_2_06-linux-i586.bin from Sun's j2se JDK page

4. to enable linux compatibility -- you can do this via sysinstall

5. add the following line to your /etc/fstab:

linprocfs   /compat/linux/proc   linprocfs   rw   0  0

6. to run linprocfs -- you may need to do this:

kldload linprocfs
mount /compat/linux/proc

7. place the files you downloaded in the third step in /usr/ports/distfiles

8. go into the jdk14 dir:

samizdata# cd /usr/ports/java/jdk14

9. and install it:

samizdata# make install


See http://taosecurity.blogspot.com/2004/11/installing-java-on-freebsd-in-january.html for a similar method of doing this.
