>> Fix:

The odds are fairly high that you have faulty hardware on your mainboard.
If signal 11's tend to happen at pseudo-random times during the installation
process there are strong odds you have a piece of ailing hardware.

All the signal 11 problems I've ever had have stemmed from bad RAM.
Although I've heard that other hardware failures will also cause them (such
as a bad motherboard).

I hope this helps you resolve your probelm.
