Where did you copy it to on the phone? (Folder location? ie. /home/.../MyDocs/) ?

Did you create the file using a Windows system? If so, you'll need to use an editor that's capable of saving files in UNIX format.

Ok so your command should be...

Code:

sudo gainroot

Enter

Code:

sh /home/user/MyDocs/filename.sh

slightly off topic but relevant...
