Sounds like a lot of work. This is what I did (besides installing linux_base and linux_devtools) 1) Get JRE to work in /usr/local/jre/bin edit jre, rmiregister, checkVersion: #!/compat/linux/bin/sh [OK, I lied. I said I only changed a single script :-] create /compat/linux/bin/arch to contain: #!/bin/sh uname -m rm /compat/linux/usr/bin/ldd 2) Get Oracle8i installer to work set DISPLAY set TMP link /compat/linux/etc/mtab to /etc/fstab It took me a couple of hours, but I didn't spend any time getting an actual database working. Oracle8i was fairly new at the time and I wasn't going to waste any time tracing bugs that also existed on Linux. My primary concern was the Linuxulator :-) -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
