Getting Started Documentation omits JAVA_HOME requirement
---------------------------------------------------------

         Key: CONTINUUM-527
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-527
     Project: Continuum
        Type: Improvement

  Components: Documentation  
    Versions: 1.0.2    
 Environment: RedHat 9, Sun JDK 1.4.2_01, java in PATH
    Reporter: Jamie Flournoy


The documentation says you can just unpack the tarball and execute run.sh but 
this is not accurate. I had to define JAVA_HOME. ./bin/linux/run.sh failed with 
a not very descriptive error message:
Running continuum...
wrapper  | --> Wrapper Started as Console
wrapper  | Launching a JVM...
wrapper  | Unable to start a JVM
jvm 1    | wrapper  | Unable to start JVM: No such file or directory (2)
jvm 1    | wrapper  | Critical error: wait for JVM process failed (No child 
processes)
wrapper  | <-- Wrapper Stopped

So either run.sh should check for whether JAVA_HOME is defined, or the docs 
should say it's required, or (even better!) both.
