Now i don't remember well but there are two type of JRE: native
and green.
Oracle8i require only one of them. Don't remember now which one.
I remember that the patch oracle released solved some of this
problems for some scripts.
But there is even an "hard" solution. There must be a directory
named "native_threads" under your JRE tree. Make a simbolic link
named "green_threads" to "native_threads" directory :)
Or, better solution instead of using the CD directly, to copy
all the CD in a directory inside the HD and edit the wrong scritp
removing the invalid option "-green" and putting "-native".
