Hi,
I'm try to rebuild the 2.6.11 kernel using the instructions at this web page,
mentioned in a recent post as a good guide.
http://crab-lab.zool.ohiou.edu/kevin/kernel-compilation-tutorial-en/
I'm using the src rpm
kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3.src.rpm
as the source, and have followed the instructions to the letter, using "i686"
as my ARCH (the output from uname -p)
everything is OK until step 8
> rpmbuild -bb --target=i686 ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel-2.6.spec

Could you try building with:
$ rpmbuild -bb --target i686 ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel-2.6.spec
instead of:
$ rpmbuild -bb --target=i686 ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel-2.6.spec
and see if that helps?
