The unix startup script, "install_unix", is a BASH script and must be set as executable
to be used. To set the script as executable:
From the command line:
To set the file permission correctly you will need to run the following command:
chmod +x install_unix
Then to execute the installer you will need to run the following command:
./install_unix
From a GUI:
If you are using a GUI you will need to do something like right-click the install_unix
file, then select "properties" (or "permissions" or something similar), and change the
file "mode" or "permissions" to include "execution" by the owner of the file (the user
account you are currently using should be the owner of the file). Once the file is set
as executable, run the file (probably by clicking on it).
