[izpack-users] Copy a file in JRE install directory

[Richard Christophe]

Hello,

Thanks a lot Klaus and Mika for your help. Finally i've test with simply 
copy the soundbank file without override to JAVA_HOME and it works 
(perhaps only with my configuration but if users report some problems 
i'll try to use Windows registry).

Best regards,

Christophe
