Yes, when it's fooled up beyond all recognition like, this my experience tells me it is because * ./jdk-6u6-linux-x64.bin is a bourne shell script starting with "!/bin/sh" * On your Linux box, /bin/sh is a link to /bin/dash. Cure: Uninstall dash. Normally after that, /bin/sh becomes a link to /bin/bash.
