Whatever a "shared image version info" is, INSTALL complains that the 
image was linked with the system image, aka link/sysexe, and that there 
is a version mismatch with the subsystems. Ask ANALYZE/IMAGE for the 
version numbers: /select=version and you will get the ANALYZE$* symbols 
filled in with the information. They contain the version numbers of the 
subsystems which the image contains and the ones of the running system. 
I wouldn't try to fake these.
