this requires an OpenSSH daemon running on the N900. If you don' know what that means or don't want to install yet another application, you can just copy the ejre folder with the (windows) GUI onto the tablet, and use XTerminal to move it from /home/user/MyDocs/ejre to /opt

the command(s) would look like this:

Code:

sudo gainroot
mkdir /opt/java
cd /home/user/MyDocs
mv ejre1.6.0_10 /opt/java

i'm sorry i forgot that mydocs is of course a vfat and will loose needed executable flags.
the above is wrong, do this instead:
copy the .tar.gz (or .tgz, haven't d/l it yet) on the n900, then

Code:

sudo gainroot
cd /home/opt/java
tar -xzvf /home/user/MyDocs/<filename>.tar.gz

btw, /home/opt and /opt are the same.
