Good Afternoon Sudha:

To set a shell environment variable in BASH you need to export
the variable so it is available to child shell instances:

$ export MACHTYPE=x86_64

Please note the README files in the source tree src/product/README*

I tried setting it to 'x86_64' and install again, but the same message appears. Kindly help giving the necessary steps for a successful installation.
