different processors have different instruction sets.
for example, although amd and intel processors share most of the same
instruction set, there are some instructions that don't exist in both.

when you install some linux distributions, they will install binaries
optimized for your processor (-686 vs. -k7, etc).  when you take that image and
try to move it to another machine, it will be unable to run these binaries.

since your distribution appears to be doing this, a way around it is
to create an image on a machine with the same processor, or if you can
figure out what the problem packages are, you can replace thost packages
with their unoptimized (-i386) counterparts.
