The installer script seems to be trying to call a 64-bit version of xsetup (which doesn't exist on my dvd). Try installing with a 32-bit program environment:

linux32 ./install_unix.sh

This worked for me.

I am doing all of this as root. The install disk was giving me a read only error at one point, and I can confirm that the fstab file contains 'exec'. I have also tried to copy the files to my harddrive, in a new folder within the home folder, and tried to install from there (after changing permissions). Nothing seems to be working. If anyone has any additional suggestions, please help.
