First I tried the newbie guide exactly step-by-step with the file that I already had, but it still gave me the same error at the same point. I re-downloaded it from the PlaneShift downloads page and tried again, and it worked that time. Yay!

In case it comes up again for anyone else, I was originally using the torrented file, which was giving me the error, but when I downloaded it through the Uniquity mirror, it ran fine.

Thanks for your help, both of you!

I'm a recent convert from Windows, and I've never installed a .bin file in Linux before. I downloaded the 32-bit version, and have attempted to install it with these instructions (http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/805345/how_to_install_a_bin_file_on_ubuntu.html). It seems to go well until the last step (./filename.bin, or in this case ./PlaneShift-v0.5.4-x86.bin) at which point, it tells me that it has a "Segmentation Fault."

Is there a known cause/fix for the error, or an alternative way of installing the file? Thanks!
