Thanks anyway but I was asking if I could drop Sun's JDK on Fedora Core 
2 and have the Java apps shipped with it start using it instead of the 
runtime provided by GCJ/GNU Classpath without making any significant 
changes, just like if they had been built with it.
I prefer to use Sun's JDK (and I intend to start developing using 
1.5/Tiger) and if I could just install that and not have to 
recompile/reinstall ant and all that, that would be a nice bonus.

PS: Sun's JDK does not support native compilation, only bytecode.
