Having problems installing Lime Wire with Redhat Linux 9
 

Hey, can anyone help me out with this one? I've just installed Java Run Time Environment Standard Edition 1.4.2 and it by default installed it to /home/joe

Now, when I follow the instructions as posted on LimeWire's own page, I go to a terminal consule, navigate to the directory where the Linux installer is located (in my case it's in /home/joe/rpm_installers) and I type the following:

sh ./LimeWireLinux.bin

Here is what I get:

[joe@localhost joe]$ sh ./LimeWireLinux.bin
Preparing to install...

Since I know absolutelty jack about Java, can someone please explain to me why this is happening?

TIA,
