Description Steven Ostrowski 2003-01-22 23:55:04 UTC 
I downloaded 3.4.1 on my RH8.0 system. I have the
J2SDK 1.4.1_01 installed in /usr/java/j2sdk.

I tried running the binary linux installer by
itself, and it pops up the installer window saying
Initializing Wizard, but it just hangs there.

I also tried running the installer with the option
-is:javahome /usr/java/j2sdk and the same thing
happens.

Thanks for checking on this. Is there a workaround in the meantime?
i.e. a way to manually install this w/o the installer?

Thanks

Yes, you can download zip ball and simply unzip it. It creates
netbeans directory. Run runide.sh.

I have tried 3.4.1 on RedHat 8.0 and it works for me. It might be some
problem in your OS settings or memory. Signing as worksforme.
