Description

Steps:
1. Unzip Europa winter
2. Install Geronimo v1.1. server adapter v2.0.0 firstly through "Download additional server adapter"
3. Define a server runtime and try to start geronimo 1.1, it's ok
4. Install Geronimo v2.1 server adapter v2.1.2 secondly through "Download additional server adapter"
5. Define a server runtime and try to start geronimo v2.1.1, it's fine as well
6. Try to define a second geronimo v1.1 server runtime, this time there is no way to configure runtime installation directory, so no way to define geronimo v1.1 server runtime after installed geronimo v2.1 server adapter of GEP 2.1.2

Symptom analysis: the problem means if you want to work with two geronimo versions in the same time, you must follow the order described as above, otherwise you won't be able to work on geronimo v1.1 and geronimo v2.x in the same eclipse.

I'm not sure if this is a valid usage scenario, but I think there might be cases that user want to work on two different geronimo release in parallel, for example, they are doing application migration debug and they need to work on two server adapters in the same eclipse. So I report it
