Yes, I can mkdir, but it's useless for java or flash install.

I recall creating /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/ also.

/usr/local/lib/browser_plugins is there also. Does your browser can play flash on web site?

Yes, with firefox-3.6.8,1 and midori-0.2.7. I just followed the Handbook chapter for setting it up.

But my amd64 machine still can't play flash.
