I got this file I need to run to install Limewire on Mandrake 8.2...

LimeWireLinux.bin

I gave it execute permission, but when I went to install it from command line, I got this error:

***********************************
Preparing to install....
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installerfor 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.
***********************************

So what does in mean to install a virtual machine... and how would I go about doing it?

TIA

You have to have the JVM installed to be able to run the .bin program.

you can get the JVM for Linux at http://java.sun.com

post again if you need help installing it.....

Also checkout the Programming NHF's as there are a couple on Java that will help with the installation and setting of the PATHS.
