Are you trying to install it from CD?

What are the permissions in /etc/fstab for the cdrom mount command?

Some distributions include noexe as one of the options for mounting CDs as a security feature to stop users from running programs off CD. If it has noexec, edit fstab and remove it and then re-mount the cd and try running it again.
