Not sure what the error means, but this shoudl help with the script.

1. Use a text editor (like "pico") to create the script, similar to a .bat but with way more functionallity. The first line of the script should read:

#!/bin/bash

2. Then use "chmod" to make the script executable.

3. Finally you should be able to run the script by typing:

./"script name"

from the directory where the script resides.

Sombody else will have to give more detail on how to use "chmod" as I do not know. I use Midnight Commander to change file permissions.
