The compile with the altered %prep section but that does NOT include the altered config file finished with no apparent errors.
What is the next step?
Thanks,

Sorry, I must ask obvious questions. Did you copy your .config back to the SOURCES directory before running rpmbuild -ba ? How did you confirm that you are running the newly built kernel? Did you give a unique release number?
Guess I misunderstood your question. The following procedure might work.
(1) prepare .spec by removing lines from %prep (2) rpmbuild -bp kernel-2.6.spec (3) go to BUILD (where .config is) (4) make xconfig (5) add # i386 to .config as the first line (6) copy this .config back to SOURCES (using the original name xxx.config) (7) rpmbuild -ba kernel-2.6.spec
Or, instead of steps (5) to (7), just run:
I did 5 and 6 anyway, assuming that in the worst case they were not needed and would do no harm. I then did 'rpmbuild -bc ...' as below.
It was working until gpg had a segfault. From some of the emails I have been reading this is a known problem that has not been fixed yet.
Other emails I have read indicated that signmodule should be set to 0. What is the down side risk of doing this?
Thanks for all your input. I know that this will get solved. If fact, depending on your answer to the signmodule question, resolution may be at hand.

rpmbuild -bc --short-circuit kernel-2.6.spec (to build without going through %prep)
This seems to work for me. At least the building process started without any errors. The only person who can help (and give you an authentic answer) is Johnny Hughes. Hope he can chime in here.
