If those commands really do nothing (eula is supposed to show after the 
1st one) then the problem is most likely upx compression of the binary. 
The solution is to install/download upx packer and do upx -d pbsetup.run 
then it should work. I already submitted ticket about this prob to 
evenbalance. If you have problem getting upx you can download unpacked 
version from http://pjmodos.parba.cz/download/pbsetup.run (it's around 6MB).

Oh and the 3rd command is ./pbsetup.run -u (as in update).
