Are you now trying to get & install Java?
Would this be for Firefox by any chance?
You might be better trying here http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Try the Linux RPM first, download the file to your Mandriva system and then from a shell prompt run rpm -ivh yourjavafile.rpm
Change the 'yourjavafile.rpm' to the name of the file you downloaded.
That should then install J2RE for you. You may need to go into your Firefox setup and tell it where the java runtime is. To find out the path of the java runtime type the following at a shell prompt
whereis java
By default, the path should be /usr/bin/java
