Running Hadoop on FreeBSD

Hi,

Did anyone port and run Hadoop on FreeBSD clusters? 

Thanks,

Rui

http://www.freebsd.org/java/ doesn't list Java6, which might be a 
problem if we go with http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2325 
and make Hadoop require Java6 vis-a-vis FreeBSD.

However, all of the *native* code at this point is optional 
(compression-related stuff) and shouldn't block you from using Hadoop.

You should be able to run it without any changes or recompilation.

Hadoop is written in Java, after all.
