Unable to use J2EE 1.4

[Daren Desjardins]

Ive been doing Java web development on BSD for a few years now, and 
recently tried to move to J2EE 1.4 only to be completely confused by 
Suns new system.

First off, trying to download the J2EE SDK, they now force you to 
download the JDK + Sun App server bundle?  (Sun Java System Application 
Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q1 Release Candidate)

Resolving myself to the pain I knew was ahead, I grab the Linux version 
(sjsas_pe-8_1_2005Q1-linux.bin), which is now a binary instead of a zip. 
Trying to run this binary results in the lovely FreeBSD not supported 
message.

Checking available disk space...
Checking Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment...
Extracting Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment files...
Extracting installation files...
Launching Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment...
Platform not supported for media spanning: 
com.sun.wizards.media.FreebsdMediaSupport

Does anyone know how to get this bundle of joy working, or how to aquire 
just the SDK?

I also tried to download the JMS SDK, which of course brought me to the 
download page for the Sun Java System Message Queue Platform Edition. It 
seems Suns new vision is to bundle the SDK with the associated Sun 
product, forcing you to infect your machine.
