This error can occur if you download and try to run the 64 bit Linux installation files on a 32 bit Linux operating system, or if you attempt to run the 32 bit installation files on a 64 bit linux operating system. To check and see if the version of Linux is 32-bit or 64-bit, run the following command in a Terminal:
uname -a
If you see i386 or i686, this indicates you are on a 32-bit version of Linux. If you see ia64 or x86_64, then this is a 64-bit version of Linux.
