Running well in my VPS, although I had to tweak the installLisk.sh script to bypass a couple issues. Probably related to the downloads server being hammered.
Yes, it can't pull the version because of the DDOS. Glad that it's working for you.
https://downloads.lisk.io/lisk/main/the binaries are there and download just fine for me now.
Of course running the install script as it is (or reproducing it manually) requires a bit of bash knowledge, I'm afraid.
