Drive Selection

When a component has been selected, you can then choose a target drive and, if desired, modify the directory path where that component will be installed. To change the directory path, simply enter a new path in the entry field under Target Directory.

Note the following restrictions apply for specifying installation targets:

• The Runtime component is always installed to \JAVA11 directory, although you may specify which drive.
• The Internationalization Support component is always installed to the boot drive of your current OS/2 system.
• The following components require an HPFS partition as the target drive:
  • Toolkit
  • Toolkit Documentation
  • Samples
• If Java 1.0.2 is already installed on your system, it is not recommended that you install the components of IBM OS/2 Warp Developer Kit, Java(TM) Edition, Version 1.1.7 to the preexisting \JAVAOS2 directory. Refer to the read.me file for more information on coexistence with Java 1.0.2.

Available Disk Space Indicator

The Available Disk Space indicator appears on the right side of the Select Components page. It shows which drives you have available for installation and how much free space exists on each. If the space required for current install selection exceeds the available disk space, a warning message is displayed in red on the Disk Space indicator. Resolve this by deselecting one or more components for install or specify different target drives for one or more components.

If the files to be installed already exist in the target drive and directory path, the required disk space will be zero.
