Re: "binary file reported as 'no such file or directory' upon execution"
Geez... You'd think a mature distro bigger than a gigabyte would report basic errors sensibly. Like "missing 32-bit support"

can you run file utility and give it your binary?
like:
file ./yourbinary
and also do
file /bin/bash
and paste here.
./fasmlist: ELF 32-bit LSB pie executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, BuildID[sha1]=d85decb81a47920afb2e52c6215debdceaea3dfe, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, not stripped
and what is the output of
file /bin/bash
or some other binary that runs?
also can you do ldd on both - the file that doesn't run and something that does?
I won't be able till tomorrow.

dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt update && apt install libc6:i386 should fix this, if this is Debian or a derivative like Ubuntu. This is the error you get when you run a 32-bit executable on a 64-bit OS but the 32-bit loader (part of glibc) is missing.
binary file reported as 'no such file or directory' upon execution — This has to be the weirdest behavior ever. A small utility that works fine on my main machine was copied over to my Thinkpad, running identical XUbuntu. Fails on ThinkPad only I can ls it, permissions are fine, even HD and objdump look reasonable. When I try to invoke it from command line, bash reports that it does not exist. strace shows execve with correct path, craps with ENOENT (no such file or directory) It's like it...
