Download a JRE or SDK from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp, the SDK is required by some packages (like tomcat4). Install java-package -> apt-get install java-package fakeroot sun-j2sdk1.5debian Now it's just as easy as building a kernel the-Debian-way -> fakeroot make-jpkg /path/to/self-extracting_java_file Answer the questions, fill in your name & email and accept the _NONFREE_ license, just wait for some Debian Magic to finish. If no errors show up in your console, there should be a sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0+update01_i386.deb laying around in your current directory. Just -> dpkg -i sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0+update01_i386.deb Test if it works with -> java -version You're ready when the following appears-> java version "1.5.0_01" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_01-b08, mixed mode, sharing) JR -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
