Josue-
I was hoping nobody would run across this. The IBM JRE that Oracle
is using is using a horrible interface that is disgustingly specific
to IA32 that I was hoping I could forget about. Now that you need
it I'll have to implement it for IA64.
As a complete aside, can I ask why are you installing the IA32 Oracle
on your IA64 machine? I believe that there is an IA64 version available
that might make more sense.

The IA-32 thread library from glibc 2.2 compiled for i686 and a modern
kernel uses modify_ldt as well.

Don,
For reasons that I am sure are of very little interest to the people on this list,
we have dependencies on Java 1.1.8 for some of our products, in particular the
installer and configuration applets.
Since there are no plans by anyone to provide Java 1.1.8 for IA-64, we were
hoping that we could use the 32 bit version of the JRE for installing and
configuring Oracle on IA-64.
By the way, I was not really planning on running Oracle, although that may be a
good test of the functionality of the compatibility environment.
Regards,

Josue-
Good answer, I was just curious.
BTW, I have run IA32 Oracle on my IA64 box and it appears to work
fine. I got around the Java issue by installing on an IA32 machine
and copying everyting over to the IA64 box. It at least proved that
the IA32 sub-system supported Oracle and I didn't expect people to
actually run IA32 Oracle on their IA64 machines.
Also, have you looked into Kaffe, `www.kaffe.org'? It's an open source
JDK that I've compiled for IA64 and used successfully. I don't know if
it's up to date enough to satisfy your needs though.
