The installation process is simple:
- Download the version you want to install from here.
- Navigate to the folder were the
.shfile was downloaded. - Give executable permissions to the
.shfile. - Execute the installer (
.sh) file either pretendingsudocommand (in order to install it in the default/usr/local/netbeans-7.0location) or without (in order to install it in the/home/Username/netbeans-7.0/location) - Use the Graphical Installer to do the installation.
For example:

while installing Netbeans 6.9.1 on Ubuntu is the same for Netbeans 7. Netbeans needs Sun JDK to work, otherwise even the installation wizard (GUI) does not appear.
