yum install java-1.4.2-gcj-compat java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-devel
For gcj, else go to jpackage.org and follow the instructions on
http://jpackage.org/rebuilding.php
Build and install java-1.4.2-VENDOR you'll want to install the -devel
package, plus -fonts and -plugin for applets.
Then add the jpackage repos to yum and you should be all set.
We hope to have a 1.6 release very shortly (final touches)
