A typical jdk install on FreeBSD uses diablo-jdk15 (see
foundation.freebsd.org) and the installer fails to reconize this as a
valid jdk... this is true even if sun's 1.5 or 1.6 is installed (due
to FreeBSD's JavaVMWrapper architicture [it will detect diablo as
being the prefered version even if a sun newer sun jdk is installed
{see the man page on the freebsd web site}]... Two possible fixes make
the installer fail with more noise saying that no jdk could be found
and/or allow the non-sun jdk's to be used.... I fixed it by
deinstalling diablo since I do all my personal work in 1.6 but thats
besides the point.
