Hello Ming,

According to the error message: Are you sure your epsfile is in that path?

If analyzed your eps-file and have found that it has some very weird bytes in 
the beginning (also containing some null-chars). This makes rendering the file 
a bit of a gamble, and it also means that Lilypond does not find any 
information in this file (as it stops at the first null char).

So all these list-ref issues actually come from a malformed eps file. The eps 
file also has 5000 lines of junk in the end, which does not affect Lilypond, 
as Lilypond does not read further that the null char starting that stuff.

I’ve fixed up the file (it now has less than half of its original size).

To summarize:
We’ve encounterd three kinds of issues:
→ The (ice-9 format)-issue, which happens if you use \ instead of / or \\
→ The "cannot find file”-issue, which happens because Lilypond cannot find 
your file, either because it is a relative path in an unsaved document, or 
because the file does not exist, or because you do not have read access or 
something
→ The list-ref/Wrong type argument issue that happes due to the bad eps file.

So far we have resolved two of these issues, so it remains to solve the 
„cannot find file”-issue.

Cheers,
Valentin
