[CentOS] seqfault during kernel recompile...

I am using CentOS 5 with all updates installed.

I have 2 isa ne2000 network cards in my computer. From running make xconfig 
both isa  and ne2000 support needs to be compiled into the kernel instead of 
making them modules. Is this correct?

During the recompile modsign.sh failed with a segfault. In researching, I 
found an email posted on Redhat that recommended setting the signmodules to 0 
in the SPEC file.

Before I did this, I wanted to verify that this is an acceptable solution to 
the problem.

Any help will be appreciated,

David
