Uncompressing installer fails
The installer fails:

$ ./amnesia_tdd_1.0.sh
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing Installer for Amnesia - The Dark Descent..........................Extraction failed.
Signal caught, cleaning up

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 64 bits.

Already tried downloading it again, same problem.

Did you make it executable? chmod +x?

RE: Uncompressing installer fails
Do you have enough free disk space in /tmp? And is /tmp NOT mounted with noexec?

You will need around 1-1.5GB free in /tmp or specify --target when running the installer to specify an alternate location.

Mac Pro Dual 2Ghz, 7GB RAM, Snow Leopard, nVidia 8800 512MB.
Linux, 3-core AMD, 4GB RAM, Fedora 16, nVidia 450 1GB

Thx! This did the trick. Smile
./amnesia_tdd_1.0.sh --target /mnt/Documenten/Games/Amnesia/tmp/
