CooperStupor,
    Based on your previous response it looks like you are expecting bipcoind in the folder /bipcoind.  If that is correct please navigate to that folder in a terminal "cd /bipcoind" and then list the contents in long format "ls -ald ./*" and post the exact output here.  Your error message indicates that bipcoind does not exist in that folder.  So either

a) You have the windows package, and the file list will show bipcoind.exe
b) You did not fully extract the contents (a GUI file extractor will show you the files contained within but you have to move them to your destination to actually extract them).  Or alternately you extracted the .gz part of the archive but did not extract the .tar that is contained within it.
c) You extracted them to a location other than where you thought they went.

I will note that it is unlikely that your files are in /bipcoind unless you use "su" or login as root because creating files in "/" usually requires root level permission.  If you are logging into your computer as root or doing these things with "su" I highly recommend that you login with a standard (non-privileged) user account, don't use "su" for any of this, then re-download and start over from the beginning, putting your files somewhere like "/home/XXXXXX/bipcoin/" (where XXXXXX would be your username).  There are many reasons for this related to safety and security.

Thanks,
