Research direction
Start by running ./installer.sh --verbose on a Linux system and inspect installer.sh around line 200, where VERSION_ID is reported as unbound. Trace how the script obtains the Linux version and reproduce the failure under the reported conditions. Done means the installer no longer exits with this unbound-variable error.
