Create universe with access accdb file on linux server

We have got a requirement where we need to build a universe using access database file.
But our report servers are linux where Business Objects do not support. I called SAP and they said they cannot support. We are not planning to buy any drivers as it is a one time request

Is there is any way we can implement universe using .CSV files. I cannot convert it to Excel as the Access database is huge and number rows are limited in Excel

Please advise how to get the data from Ms access to the universe or Webi report

Why not use Rich Client to generate the report? It’ll let you point at local data sources so you can point directly at the access db.
