Don't have enough space in /tmp, so I copied all of it to another partition.
Installed fine from there. I should have thought of that. Brain is stuck in
low gear.

On my system I have Java in a non-standard location. Still installed okay.

I think this is the case. Perhaps there is a mount option that is needed, not sure.
It is odd because you would imagine that mounted either as a CD or loop would
amount to the same thing.
Perhaps for other users reference someone could put a note in the installation
documentation about this.
Also, seems to work on Mandriva 2007.1 Spring. Have to make some tests to be
sure. Momentics menu is there also (under KDE, don't have GNOME installed).
Might be an idea to try it with IcedTea Java (an OpenJDK version). I have used
it with Eclipse and it works up to a point. Eventually it crashes, but that might
be because I installed an unstable version.
Thanks for the assistance.
Regards,
Raymond
