Anyone can give me insight as to what the error means.

Illegal F_magic number 0x5330, expected MIPSELMAGIC or MIPSEBMAGIC

Exception: (vector=Normal)......and so.

My PROM version is: 
PROM Monitor SGI Version 5.3 Rev B10 R4X00/R5000 IP24 Feb 12, 1996 (BE).

Ok thanks Ralf for your quick response. 

How can I go about getting red hat linux ecoff binaries for my Indy 
Prom version: PROM Monitor SGI Version 5.3 Rev B10 R4X00/R5000 IP24 Feb 12,
1996 (BE). 

I also had 'sash' (ver 6.2) on the machine--thought sash knew how to boot
ELF binaries, but I got the same error (execute format error).

Let me know what should be my next step to resolve this issue.

You're feeding ELF to a machine that is expecting ECOFF binaries.
That's
a very old Indy firmware it seems.
