That is what I do and you are right it's not hard. The problem is on the 
embedded platform it will try to load the libs from /srv/nfsroot/ 
which is not valid. The absolute path is only valid on the platform where the 
install was done. I'm not sure if I explain the problem properly...I hope so...
