addnote : zImage is not a big-endian 32-bit ELF image

[Srikrishnan Sundararajan]

Hi,
I'm trying to compile the kernel for ppc64 on an
RS6000 machine. While doing 'make zImage', I get the
following error:

./addnote zImage
zImage is not a big-endian 32-bit ELF image.
make[1]: *** [zImage] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
'/usr/src/linux-2.4.13.Suse/arch/ppc64/boot'

Upon reading the addnote.c file, I find that this
error message is printed if either of the following is
not found as part of the zImage's ELF signature.
ELFCLASS32 (for 32-bit I guess) and ELFDATA2MSB(For
big-endian)

Am I missing any thing? Any help will be appreciated.
