Issues with install..

[GETCH]

Here is what I have:
Debian 3.1
gcc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)
ldd (GNU libc) 2.3.2
kernel 2.6.14-051111b
2.8ghz Intel CPU
1 GB RAM
120GB Disk

Here is my problem: basically steam keeps pumping out info as if I typed ./steam and thats it (shows the syntax help)

Here is what I did:

1. wget http://storefront.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.bin
2. chmod +x hldsupdatetool.bin
3. ./hldsupdatetool.bin
4. answered YES to prompt
5. ./steam -command install -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir .
6. reports that steam client is being updated to version 17 and then prompted to retry the command after a successful update.
7. typed item #5 again... and I start getting the syntax help (its not a fat finger issue, I've double checked that to be sure).

Anyone have any idea what the issue may be with this? I believe I am doing everything correctly. Please do not answer if you have no clue, only looking for answers from people who know how to remedy this one.

think I figured it out.. keep in mind this is a fresh install

changed -command install to -command update and it worked fine

(edit was to clarify exactly incase someone else needs this info)
