Works for me. Make sure you are in the correct directory; The archive contains a SageMath directory, which you have to change into (cd SageMath) before you run ./sage

The first time your run the sage script there will be a lot of messages about patching files to make them work in the new directory.

Did you actually write the files to the harddisk? For example, on unix you can run "sync" at the command line to flush the buffers. Otherwise it is possible that the modified files stay cached in RAM for a while. If you lose power during that time window then your changes will be lost.
