Aside from checking what Vinu suggested, I also want to know if you
followed the instructions to build and install an appropriate
cross-compiler?  The getting started guide also has instructions for
that.  If you don't have arm-rtems4.*-gcc, then you won't be able to
build RTEMS for the ARM target.

For Fedora, you can use the RPM and YUM:

Just follow the wiki instructions, and replace 4.9 with whichever
version of RTEMS you are using, for example 4.10 for the most recent
release or 4.11 if you are using the RTEMS CVS head.  Also replace
sparc with arm, since you are building for the arm target...
