No this can not help me because they have used .bin extension for jdk installation and i am using jdk tar.gz compressed binary for 32 bit platform.

When I use this command:
sudo mv ./jdk1.7.0/ /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0

It says:

mv: cannot move `./jdk1.7.0/' to `/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0': No such file or directory

I have jdk1.7.0 dir in my home dir.
