Default Can't find Java VM still (read solution to all problems already)

Okay, I don't have too many people around here that I can ask, I'm the most experienced of us here trying to start using linux. I'm using Red Hat 8.0, btw.

So I get the error telling me I don't have JVM installed, and I downloaded the newest JRE rpm.bin and installed that just fine. I even tried to install it again and it told me that it was already 100% installed. But I try 'sh ./LimeWireLinux.bin' and get the same error.

Then I found the "solution to all problems" post and downloaded the file it said.. this time sun's SDK package instead of the JRE (although sun said the JRE had the JVM package). I insalled it just like both the instructions and the post said to, and it installed perfectly like the JRE had done.

But I'm still getting the same:

[root@localhost Mike]# sh ./LimeWireLinux.bin
Preparing to install...
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installer for this system's environment...
No Java virtual machine could be found from your PATH
environment variable. You must install a VM prior to
running this program.


Does anybody know what I can do to fix this? It keeps telling me that both the SDK and JRE are installed, but it won't find my Java VM still? Help would be really appreciated, thanks.

-Mike
