The linux32 wrapper only "fakes" the reported CPU as an x86 instead of an x86_64 to any command run as it's arguments.

The reason the installer would fail to find a frontend is if it can not find the 32 bit system libstdc++.so.6 . Make sure you have the 32-bit version of libstdc++ by locating yoru libstdc++.so.6 and running "file" on it.
$ find /usr/lib{,32,64} -name "libstdc*so.*"
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.8
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
$ file -L /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6:     ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped

Make sure it says 32-bit!!.. if all of the libstdc++ files you have installed say 64-bit then you need to install the 32bit version.

If it still failes run
nohup sh -x ./PenumbraOvertureDemo-1.0.1.sh

And attach the generated nohup.out to this thread.
