I am running RH7.1 (Gnome 1.4). When I try to install Limewire, it hangs at the very beginning.
All I see is "Preparing to Install..."
I am sure I am not the first person to have this difficulty. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,

I had several problems:
First of all, you must have the ncompress rpm installed. After doing this I still couldn't get the installer to work. I used the following commmand to trace the execution of the script:
sh -x ./LimeWireLinux.bin
This shows that quite a bit of the script is working correctly. It installs its own jave interpreter and fails (hangs up) when it gets invoked for the first time.
I don't see how to fix the problem. I guess we have to wait for the next version...
