This will make the binary file executable. Then all you have to do is to run it like a command. just do, ./j2sdk-1_4_1_05-linux-i586-rpm.bin This will extract all the files. Note when you run this command all the files will be expanded under the directory where j2sdk-1_4_1_05-linux-i586-rpm.bin. So make sure that you place j2sdk-1_4_1_05-linux-i586-rpm.bin in the directory where you want to have your java stuff.
