Hi:

I am very new to Linux. I just installed RedHat 7.2 yesterday.

I would like to install Sun's Java SDK - J2SDK-1_4_0-1-linux-1386-rpm.bin

I tried typing in rpm -i J2SDK-1_4_0-1-linux-1386-rpm.bin in the terminal window - the message read manifest:failed appeared.

What have I done incorrectly? Thanks very much!!!

The Linux porting has been a stressful evet - so far. Hope things will get better.
