Java 6 is not available for this platform (Mac OS X 10.5 PowerPC).

The part of log file that Peter send me:
Jul  7 15:26:08 PowerBook runner[332]: postflight[345]: /Volumes/NetBeans 6.9/NetBeans 6.9.mpkg/Contents/Packages/baseide-201006101454.pkg/Contents/Resources/unpack200.sh: line 37: /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home/bin/unpack200: Bad CPU type in executable

It looks like not suitable JDK version is installed there (probably suitable for Mac Intel).
