Installing JSim on Linux

JSim's Linux public release distribution (v2.16 and earlier) is currently a 32 bit version and runs on the i386 and x64 (aka amd64, em64t, x86_64) hardware architectures. With the beta release of JSim version 2.17, only x64 (64 bit) OS and harware architectures are supported. Users running Linux on other hardware architectures (e.g. IA64, Sparc, PowerPC) should use the JSim source distribution instead.
