Thanks, M
This is for Intel Core2 Duo, so I've downloaded AMD64 (same instruction
set) from java.com and then (as per
http://java.com/en/download/help/5000011300.xml#download) run the
binary:
mkb@veri:~/src$ su

[root@veri src]# cd /usr;ls

etc include lib libexec sbin src
[root@veri usr]# cd local;ls

etc include lib64 matlab_7_4 sbin src
[root@veri local]# mkdir java
[root@veri local]# cd java
[root@veri java]# chmod a+x ~mkb/src/jre-6u3-linux-amd64-rpm.bin
