Fixed the links in the eclipse quickstart; they are probably in the netbeans one as well.

The GeoServer docs have the updated links, and also an essential workaround to get the bin installer working under Linux:
<a href="http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/production/java.html">http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/production/java.html</a>
The jai bin installer also checks for the existence of jre/lib/$ARCH before installing. Unfortunately, this prevents the installer from running on a multiarch system such as x86_64 ("amd64" when installing JAI into an i386 ("i586" JDK. For example, on Fedora 14 x86_64 the bin installer refuses to install JAI into a 32-bit JDK. It fails with "This is not a proper JDK directory". The workaround is trivial, but not documented on the GeoServer page:
mkdir jre/lib/amd64
The imageio bin installer also fails without first running:
export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209
as documented on the GeoServer page.
In short, for Fedora 14 x86_64, in a 32-bit JDK directory:
chmod 700 jai*.bin
mkdir jre/lib/amd64
export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209
./jai-1_1_3-lib-linux-i586-jdk.bin
./jai_imageio-1_1-lib-linux-i586-jdk.bin
rm -f jai*.bin

Please also take a look at <a href="http://docs.geotools.org/latest/developer/guide/building/install/install.html">http://docs.geotools.org/latest/developer/guide/building/install/install.html</a> and mark optional downloads
Links for ImageIO and JAI have changed since Oracle took over Java.
ImageIO is now at http://download.java.net/media/jai-imageio/builds/ - http://download.java.net/media/jai-imageio/builds/
JAI is now at http://download.java.net/media/jai/builds/release/ - http://download.java.net/media/jai/builds/release/
