I downloaded jdk1.2pre-v1 and installed it. I expected troubles when I saw that the latest libc libraries, the glibc, are required. Now, if I'm not completely mistaken, glibc is the libc6. I had previously installed some libc.so.6 libraries and the ld-linux.so.2. But it didn't work, I get this: /lib/libc.so.6: undefined symbol: _dl_profile I guessed that my libc.so.6 version could be old, so since I have a very old slackware that I manually hacked up to today, I chose to use the shlib.rpm from SUSE 6.0 (since I'm waiting for the italian 6.1 version to be available) and installed it. I got a seg fault whenever I run native_thread or green_thread java :( If the kernel version is needed, I still have the 2.0.36. Now I wonder if there is someone who still has the 2.0.x kernels and properly installed glibc libraries where the JDK 1.2 works. If someone can help me, I'd like to know which libraries I should install, I guess I'll need only the ld-linux.so.2 and libc.so.6, so the right place where take them from (maybe from RedHat or Debian archives?) will be a great help.
