The "new way" of doing things is to use the start scripts, which is outlined at the start of the page I linked below. You probably want to bite the bullet and get used to that way of doing things, as it's likely going to be where ongoing work is done.
If you still want to approach it the way you are, I see two issues: The first issue is that you need to upload a configset to Zookeeper. In SolrCloud, all configs live on the Zookeeper node, which will eventually be a different machine so that's a necessary first step. There's a section on this using zkcli here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Using+ZooKeeper+to+Manage+Configuration+Files The second issue is that the second node you started is _also_ starting it's own embedded Zookeeper, and these don't know about each other. You need the -z localhost:9983 option (I think the 9983 is the default Zookeeper port when you run embedded ZK in one of your Solr instances).
