sudo: ./install.sh: command not found is not working on Lion

I've been following this tutorial in order to get SimpleOpenNI installed on my mac but I keep getting stuck at installing the OpenNI and NITE components because it requires me to navigate to the folders in Terminal and then run "sudo ./install.sh". I do this and I get this error:

sudo: ./install.sh: command not found

I've installed Command Line Tools in Xcode and everything.

Thanks

You need to run VBoxLinuxAdditions.run as root, not autorun.sh

Once you've inserted the Guest Additions ISO, open Files and open the disc from the sidebar. Then, right-click in the background of the window where autorun.sh is and select

Open in > Terminal

Now you can run the following command to install the Guest Additions:

sudo ./VboxLinuxAdditions.run

.sh scripts should have "\n" line breaks. "Command not found" also occurs if "\r\n" line breaks are used. Well at least this is the case on FreeBSD.

The reason why that happens is because the script you are trying to execute needs the right permissions.

Type:

sudo chmod a+x install.sh

and then try again.

first open Terminal, type cd and than drag the map into Terminal and press enter. Now type sudo ./install.sh and it will work. Took me very long to find out. Hope it helps.
