The default location is in /opt.  However, you should be able to simply
enter soffice on the commandline to start OOo. This is a link
to /etc/openoffice.org-2.0/program/soffice. If you want you can link
to /etc/openoffice.org-2.0/program/soffice/swriter or make a shell
script to invoke writer. For example, 
#/bin/sh
soffice -writer $1

would open the file specified by $1 in OOo Writer.

Hope this helps.
