Thanks Laurent

ARM Linux kernel is built with arm-gnu-eabi  cross  compiler toolchain 
(from code sourcery).

I dont think this will be a problem (correct me if i am wrong). It 
creates normal zImage as well as uImage (with the help of mkimage )

Can you please brief the point /*"Most implementations will translate 
that to another valid mode, qemu does n't"*/

Can you please  suggest any other options to test/debug my basic linux 
kernel image as I dont have the real hardware yet.
