That might be the problem. On Ubuntu, /bin/sh is a symbolic link to
dash, which is mostly compatible with bash (and the original Bourne
shell sh), but has some slight differences.

You could try typing "bash /media/runInstaller" to see if that fixes the
error message. The error looks like you're hitting one of the syntax
incompatibilities.
