Extract RPM fro rpm.bin
 

Please anyone guide me. i have jdk.rpm.bin package. when i run the command ./jdk.rpm.bin it extracts and automatically installs the package. i want to extract rpm package only and to install rpm myself not automatically.

Try running it with a "--help" argument. It may have an extract option. The nvidia installer has a similar option.

If it actually is a bash script, it my have the RPM file embedded as a HERE document.

"Scientific Linux" makes sun java rpm packages for EL 5 :
