As you found out doing the above may not work. The system you copy from
has to be binary compatible with the one you are copying to. In order to
get this problem and the others you mentioned solved, you will need to
stick with a setup. At this point there are too many moving parts in
your errors to get a handle on what is going on:) Also a step by step
account of what you did to setup the system would be nice.
