    Enemy territory install error

    Hi i am a total noob with linux and it's proberly a stupid mistake but please help me. I am tring to install enemy territory linux on debian. I did the netinstall version of debian. The et file is from the type .run But when i try to run it i get an error saying that im an trying to run a binary file.

    How can i fix this. Do i need to install a dabian package befor i can run a binary file or what?

    Kind regards,

    Sidney

    alright ass root, check to make sure there are no capitol letters in it.... Try:

    Code:
    cd /directory/where/that/file/is
    sh ./filename.run
    linux is cap sensitive so make sure it is typed right
