I see they've made a couple of changes that completely screw my
installation script, which ran perfectly for the *.rpm.bin packages.

Yes, I hear that. As a matter of fact I just finished cleaning up some of that

Going to modify install_jre to remove the Mandriva install and go back
to using the downloaded rpm.

They have been correcting some errors etc. ever since
they upgraded it. I have my nephew using it on M$ since
it came out. He is a java freek:)
