In 90% of the cases, a signal 11 means faulty memory.
In 9% of the cases, something wrong with the processor (usually overheating)

1%: Others reasons

Suggestion: Running memtest86

I must be in the other 1% of reasons. I ran memtest86 and I also tried it on other systems. These are brand new IBM (Lenovo) ThinkCentre M52 systems with 4GB of RAM. On all systems it fails with the same error. So I ask again, can a misconfigured kickstart configuration file cause this problem? If not, how can I debug this? How can I capture any logs from the kickstart session? None of the virtual consoles appear to have a running shell where I can access the system.

On a related note, what's the consensus on enabling hyperthreading on a CentOS system? Good, bad, indifferent? The systems will be used as developer workstations.

Thanks,
Alfred
