I tried tha but it was not the problem.  I  eventually stumbled on  linkling 
/bin/test  to /usr/bin/test.  That seems to have made a difference and the

I need some guidance however  to intsall (to the filesystem)  these  with the 
j2sdk image, what to link  so programs like ant sees a jvm.




thanks so far and your (and others on list)  continued advice is much 
appreciated.
