Subject: kexec: Cannot determine the file type of arch/x86/boot/bzImage

Hi.

Look at this:

$ file arch/x86/boot/bzImage (tree 821f3eff7cdb9d6c7076effabd46c96c322daed1)
arch/x86/boot/bzImage: Linux kernel x86 boot executable zImage, version
2.6.23 (thomas@...zenplotz) #39, RO-rootFS, root_dev 0x803, swap_dev
0x1, Prompt for Videomode

$ file /boot/bzImage-2.6.23
/boot/bzImage-2.6.23: Linux kernel x86 boot executable RO-rootFS,
root_dev 0x803, swap_dev 0x1, Normal VGA

and this:

# kexec -l arch/x86/boot/bzImage
Cannot determine the file type of arch/x86/boot/bzImage

How to solve this error?
