The "Signal 11 FAQ" might help: http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ Do something long and CPU- and memory-intensive like compiling a kernel or, better yet, the entire system. If the compiler keeps bombing on signal 11, you've probably got a hardware problem. (Two common culprits are bad RAM and an overheating box.)
