So if anyone is having this same problem I figured out why. The package of java that comes with FC5 doesnt work with the izpack installer. It freezes up. To run it, you need to have Sun's java. Then you must tell your computer to use the one that works and not the one that doesn't . You can find the directions for doing that at:

Thanks R2-D2 for posting the solution!

I wonder what Linux distribution is the most NMR/Sci.software friendly ( a bit out of topic here ). I had a lot of problems with Fortran of Suse 10.1, could not make the latest Gromacs 3.3 working with both Suse 10.1 and Fedora Core 5. I wonder if there is a Linux distribution that takes in account the requirements (or imperfections?) of the academic software or if the only way is to spend time learning how to built your own Linux distribution (with Gentoo?).
