software installation not working

[KingAlanI]

I just recently installed Linux (Ubuntu 8.04); I had used wubi to create a dual-boot machine out of my Windows Vista laptop

One of the things I'm trying to do is install Railroad Tycoon II, the Linux-version port by Loki Software
(I bought this when i was a Windows-only user, not having noticed that it was the Linux version. Now that I have linux...)

I insert the CD, it's recognized by my machine.

I click on the 'setup.sh' icon, which doesn't seem to do anything.
I then open up Terminal, go
cd /media/cdrom0, which is where it's mounted.

I type in sh setup.sh and get:

setup.sh: 9: function: not found
x86_64

I type in sh setup and get:

sh: Can't open setup
