Hi mattnull,

I have the exact same problem. I am also running RedHat 8.0. Before installing LimeWire, I installed Java J2SE 1.4.01, the latest version of Java and its Virtual Machine. Here is what happened when I tried to install Lime Wire through a terminal:


[root@localhost root]# /tmp
[root@localhost tmp]# sh ./LimeWireLinux.bin
Preparing to install...
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installer for this system's environment...
No java virtual machine could be found from your PATH environment variable. You must install a VM prior to running this program.
[root@localhost tmp]#

I posted a message about it on Sun Microsystem's Java Developer Forums, but have yet to receive a reply. Then, I thought maybe LimeWire had a forum, looked and posted here.

Hope we get an answer soon.
