start grass with the "grass64" script, not with Init.sh.

all the grass64 script does is set the $GISBASE variable then call
Init.sh, but that is the critical grass variable.

"/etc/gis_set.tcl": no such file or directory
  with $GISBASE expands to
"/usr/local/grass64/etc/gis_set.tcl"

etc. 

see also the batch scripting wiki page which tells you how to run grass
without init.sh
