So I'm overwriting one file with its newer version extracted from newer hdd-usb image. No syslinux problems, no re-config needed, it's the same file, just newer.

I figured that out. Syslinux stuff belongs to a different directory but 
this does not mean that your were playing with fire.

Anyway I'm glad it worked for you. I'll add it to my list (learning a

Next step was to try Debian on real hardware, hence the live-USB idea (the USB disk is also a great recovery tool, I have other tools there, like UBCD4Win). Probably next step will be a dual-boot PC, but not yet. Debian-live boots surprisingly fast from my USB flash disk.
