    Hi Rudy,

    If you just want to get up and running, instead of using the all-in-
    one installer for now, you could just try downloading eclipse from
    eclipse.org instead. I install it in /Applications/eclipse.

    I am unfamiliar with the all-in-one installer, as are most on the
    list. The irony of the all-in-one is that if something goes wrong with
    the install, it is actually harder to troubleshoot.

    Dave
