There's always the registry key... JAVA_SDK_VERSION=`cat /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/Java\ Development\ Kit/CurrentVersion` JAVA_JRE_VERSION=`cat /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/Java\ Runtime\ Environment/CurrentVersion` export JAVA_HOME=`cat /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/Java\ Development\ Kit/${JAVA_JRE_VERSION}/JavaHome` export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin used to work for me (I don't have Java installed atm (new machine)).
