Hmmm...

Which libraries might those be?  Looks to me that it never gets to
loading libraries.  I do not want to install everything "lib32..." Since
(as below) strace is not helping me how do I determine which libraries I
need?

Keon$ strace ./fastboot
execve("./fastboot", ["./fastboot"], [/* 44 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
dup(2)                                  = 3
fcntl(3, F_GETFL)                       = 0x8002 (flags O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE)
fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 1), ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0)
= 0x7f7e27692000
lseek(3, 0, SEEK_CUR)                   = -1 ESPIPE (Illegal seek)
write(3, "strace: exec: No such file or di"..., 40strace: exec: No such
file or directory
) = 40
close(3)                                = 0
munmap(0x7f7e27692000, 4096)            = 0
exit_group(1)                           = ?
