Subject:   Removing JDK completely ?

Hi - I've got a problem installing the JDK on FreeBSD 4.8 (see
"/usr/ports/java/jdk13 - make all dumps - any suggestions ?" on the
FreeBSD Questions list for details) and as I don't know how to fix I was
thinking that I might completely uninstall all Java related stuff and
start again.

So far I have obtained the Linux JDK, the sources for the JDK and the
FreeBSD patchset for the JDK and done a 'make install'. In fact I've done
a make install several times as the process fell over because certain
dependencies weren't met and so I fixed those and restarted. I've now got
to a point in the make where it just says 'illegal instruction'.

So my question is what's the best way to clean every trace of Java from
the box so I can start again and (maybe) get further this time ?

thanks

richard shea
