I have messed with RHE's installed this way. You'll be fine with it in /home/. As for JAVA_HOME environment variable being set. You have a few options. Update your .bash_profile to inclue the path to the java bin before the typical /usr/bin/ location where RedHat's default java executable is.

Here is an example of a .bash_profile with Java environmental variables set (i am using /opt/jrockit/bin, but you would change this to your specific install):
# .bash_profile

# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
       . ~/.bashrc
fi

# User specific environment and startup programs

PATH=/opt/jrockit/bin:$PATH:$HOME/bin
BASH_ENV=$HOME/.bashrc
USERNAME="root"
CLASSPATH=/opt/jrockit/bin
JAVA_HOME=/opt/jrockit

export USERNAME BASH_ENV PATH CLASSPATH JAVA_HOME


If you make the change and want to see the results right there do:
source .bash_profile

This only sets it for this user, if you want them global at the values into the /etc/bashrc

Jake,

I have had this problem in the past. The tech who set up our sever
partitioned everything very oddly. I cannot even install stuff into
/opt/ because the partition is too small.

I have been installing the rest of my applications in /home/apps/
Should I install jdk1.6 there as well? How will the system know that
it has jdk1.6 now and not jdk1.4, is there something I must do to
update it?

Here is what I receive when I do a df from the root:

Well if there isn't space then you'd have a hard time copying it anywhere.
You could check your disk usage by using the command "df".

Good luck.
