   Use the one matching your architecture, by the wa= y you can use jre
   if you want but I did the installation with jdk, after yo= u have
   diablo installed you can install the native java port, you'll run in=
   to problems if you try to install with old ports so first you need to
   run p= ortversion -l "<"  and then portupgrade -f old-port1
   olport-port2 o= ld-portn ... --batch (setting the batch variable will
   use the default answe= rs to ports installations so you don't have to
   be waiting for the computer = to prompt for a response from you),
   after this you can update the ports tre= e with portsnap fetch update
   and run the same commands until you're sure yo= ur ports are current
   and after this process you'll be able to install the n= ative java
   port with no problems, this process might take a whole day depen= ding
   on your hardware but is worth it.

   You can wor= k just with diablo as it works very well and you'll have
   less time spent in= the process.

   you'll also need to place this files= under /usr/ports/disfiles

   tzupdater-1_3_29-2010f= .zip

   and you can find it here

   If not mistaking I remember another file needed but during the inst=
   allation the error will give you the link to download that file.

   I hope this can help you better.
