It means that you are running the command in the wrong directory. Where have you saved the .sh file? Some useful unix commands: pwd (tells you the current working directory) ls (show the files of the current directory) If you install the package 'locate', you'll be able to know where is the file: locate lilypond-2.14.0-1.linux-x86.sh I use to install/update lilypond with these commands: cd /tmp # files in /tmp will be automatically deleted when I shut down the computer wget http://.......... # copy and paste the link of the file uninstall-lilypond # uninstall previous version sh lilypond-VERSION.OS.sh I install it as normal user, so in my home directory. Another thing you should know about using the terminal is the TAB key, which autocompletes the names of files and directories. In order to copy and paste in the terminal you can use the mouse or Ctrl + Shift + Key (C, V, Z). Good luck!
