I tried separately linux-sun-jdk13 and linux-blackdown-jdk13, neither 
helped me to get past that danged ALT_BOOTDIR error message. Any way I 
can set the ALT_BOOTDIR or find out how to remove it?!

Funny thing is that I was able to install jdk13 natively with no 
problems a month ago, then on another computer, this error keeps popping 
up. Same hardwares, same configuration. I remember in the past few 
years, sometimes it installed with no problems, sometimes the error 
keeps popping up. I have no idea what I did or what changed. Grrrr!
