During the above install, a screen pops up asking to accept the licence agreement. How can this be automated during a DAB install?

Click to expand...

It is not possible to remove that due to license restrictions (totally useless, but required by sun).
 
You need to limit/configure the memory usage for java (i have no idea how to do that). There are various post about the problem on this forum.
 
Re: DAB install of sun-java6-jre fails - SOLVED

This article was very useful in solving this issue. Offline PDF View attachment JRE6Debian.zip.
Code: 
http://orkus.wordpress.com/2010/07/06/howto-install-suns-java-6-on-debain-lenny/

JRE 6 needs the dummy X package and needs to have the /etc/X11/xorg.conf re-configured to make it's Device section like:
Code: 
Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 Option  "UseFBDev"  "true"
EndSection
The Option line above is the newly added entry.

The following steps installed Java Runtime 6 successfully in Debian Lenny:
Code: 
apt-get -t lenny-backports install xserver-xorg-video-dummy
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
apt-get lenny-backports install sun-java6-jre
Whilst the lenny-backports did not have anything special for JRE, the only package it could contribute now for the dummy X was libasound2 1.0.22-2~bpo50+2.

Append the following line to /root/.bashrc:
Code: 
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun

Logout and login again or manually execute the appended line above and check that Java RE 6 is installed and working correctly:
Code: 
# echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
 
# java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode)

Re: Silent Install of JRE - SOLVED

Solved the auto answer for sun-java6-jre install.
Create a file jrelicence.txt populated with the following content:
Code: 
sun-java5-jdk shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 select true
sun-java5-jre shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 select true
sun-java6-jdk shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 select true
sun-java6-jre shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 select true
The execute:
Code: 
/usr/bin/debconf-set-selections jrelicence.txt
apt-get install sun-java6-jre
# or if inside DAB:
# dab install sun-java6-jre
echo >> /root/.bashrc
echo "export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun" >> /root/.bashrc
Now logout of the SSH and login again and check that JRE is running:
Code: 
# echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
 
# java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode)
