Try making the directory through debug and then the usual install through the web update or assist.

Mine is torn apart right now, but when I installed a fresh drive, the OS set it up and the Java directory existed with nothing in it. I hadn't installed it yet.

I will try later this week (I'm heading out of town for a few days) to delete the Java directory and try the install to see if I'm getting the same error.

I was using a freebsd mini-inst (minimal install) on another box to clone the drive using dd.
I then ftp'd it over to another box for safe keeping.

I used freebsd in the hopes of being able to mount the filesystems, but ran into compatibility issues with with the 4100 drive not being a standard setup.
I hex/ascii dumped the drive though to go through it, but that's another story.

Have you tried the ghost setup for cloning the drive?
