A google.con search on Signal 4 or 11 will give you a number of things
to check, ie  Memory, Overclocking, etc.

ISTR a recent post about GCC itself causing this (upgrade required).

I had a problem with a AMD k6-200 used MB I bought.  To compile the
newer kernels I had to clock it at 166 Mhz and replace the memory.

It now runs faster, @ 166 Mhz, then it did at 200 with the old memory.

:-) HTH, YMMV, HAND :-)
