This may be completely irrelevant to the problem, but what user are you
attempting to run the setup executable as?  And what user is mounting the
CD-ROM device?

If the user attempting to execute the binary isn't priveleged to execute
files off the CD-ROM, that may be one of your problems.

that won't help if it's the problem that scott and i think it is.  the
binary file error means that the file the shell tried to run isn't a format
the kernel recognizes as an executable.

i'd say let's wait til we find out what the output from the file command is.
