Hello! Atm im trying to install Java 1.6.0_05 JDK onto my fairly new AMD mac system. At this moment im running Leopard(SSE2/SSE3 Kalyway AMD) with the default jdk 1.5.0 but would like to use 1.6.0 for my java assignments for uni. I tried using the java install from apple development site but it said that it was only compatible with Intel 64-bit arch. So should i use the Linux binaries and port it over (please tell me how if thats the case) otherwise i would need to clean up my xp partion. I could use work arounds like Virtual Machines but native would make my life alittle easier since im bound to 1 cpu due to ethernet issues utilising both cores on my cpu.

Any suggestions?

If you find out how, let me know.

it's 64bit only, you can use it only if someone manages to enable 64bits on AMD
you can't simply compile from linux sources tho...
