      Description

      At step 4 of 11, the default Java VM path points to C:\Program Files\Java\jre6. However, it is a 64-bit VM which does not work with the 32-bit distribution. If the default system JVM is 64-bit, the installer should ask user to specify the correct VM path or try to guess more paths (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6). Otherwise, JBDS will fail on startup even if the installation succeeds.
