So, what is the deal with the Linux installer anyway? I downloaded the installer, made sure it was executable, and tried to run it. It didn't work. Instead, I got the error message "/bin/sh: 0: Can't open ./gog_transistor_2.0.0.3.sh". If it matters, I am running Linux Mint 18 (32-bit). This is the first time that I've run into this problem with a GOG Linux installer. When I recently re-installed Crypt of the NecroDancer on this same computer, for example, I had no trouble at all.

Am I going to need to use vv221's method in order to play the game on my preferred machine? If so, I will be very sad.

How large is the installer? You could try:
$ bash gog_transistor_2.0.0.3.sh
Personally, I don't run the installers, but just extract them:
$ unzip installer.sh

It's over 2 GB. Which seems a bit much for a script doesn't it? I'll have to try unzipping later. Thanks for the tip.

Not noticeably as it contains the packed installer files. Your issue would seem to be DASH large file support (>2 GB). Running it with BASH would also workaround it if you didn't want to extract it.

Well, I figured. Using bash seems to have done the trick. Thanks for your all your help.
