Hello, Im no linux guru and its been awhile since I installed the JDK but it went something like this: I had to change the .bin file to an executable with chmod +x filename then execute the file with ./filename this extracted an .rpm which is intalled with rpm -i filename.rpm
I forget where the files were installed but if I needed to find them I would look for them with find -name java.exe -print then add that path to my PATH variable in ~/.bash_profile this would put 'javac' for compiling and 'java' for running on your path. This may or may not be good advice but hopefully it helps. ~John --- Debopam Ghoshal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi All, > Can anyone please help me on how to run the JDK > (1.4.0) on linux.
