Hello Marian, Top doesn't show anything active related to Java initialization, or anything running that I can identify as belonging to the runInstaller process.
I also ran runInstaller through strace (suggested by someone lese the other day). It appears that the runInstaller process issues the message, checks the status of some files, and then exits. However, the normal prompt character is not displayed. Press enter, and you're back to the normal prompt character. Very frustrating, Dave Dave Stuart Prin. Info.

Did you check what is going on during that time ? For examle with 'top' ot 'vmstat' in another terminal ? Memory constraints ?
