INSTALL script produces error message

I'm trying to install LabVIEW 6i Eval on Debian 3.0r1.

Here's a transcript of my session:

--
# /cdrom/linux/INSTALL
bash: /cdrom/linux/INSTALL: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied
#
--

How do I fix this?

I haven't used Debian, so I'm kind of grasping.
The simplest interpretation of the error message is that something's
wrong with /bin/sh. Is /bin/sh working? (Just type "/bin/sh", and you
should now be running the Bourne shell. Type ctrl-D to return to your bash
shell.) If that works, try running "/bin/sh /cdrom/linux/INSTALL" and see
if that helps.
If that fails, you might try looking at the permissions of the files on
/cdrom and see if there's some obvious problem.
You might also contact your sales rep and ask if you can get the LabVIEW
7 Express Evaluation CD. (Or call NI and ask if there's a Linux version of
the evaluation version available for download.)

/bin/sh /cdrom/linux/INSTALL worked. Thank you.

There are other misc. problems with the script, however (it assumes `more` is located in /usr/bin, et c.), but these can be dealt with elsewhere.
