The text at the link I gave reads:

----
The installer crashes on Linux. What can I do?

BitRock InstallBuilder has been designed to create installers that
will run out of the box in virtually any Linux distribution. In rare
ocassions, a certain combination of system libraries and X-Window
server setup may cause the installer to crash. If that occurs, you may
want to try running in different modes:

./installer-name.bin --mode xwindow

or

./installer-name.bin --mode text

In any case, please report the issue so it can be addressed.

That implies your original download was incomplete or corrupt.

Do the files on both systems match if you compare a checksum?
