Zero for OpenSolaris on System z

[Gary Benson]

Hi Neale,

The immediate problem that you're going to have is that Zero is
currently Linux specific.  If you check out a copy of IcedTea
(hg clone http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea6) you'll find
the sources for Zero in two places:

  ports/hotspot/src/cpu/zero
  ports/hotspot/src/os_cpu/linux_zero

To make it work on OpenSolaris you'll have to port the latter.
Do you have any kind of Java running on your system right now?

Cheers,
Gary
