I downloaded the newest stable kernal 2.4.1 and went to run "make
menuconfig" and I get the error menubox.c139: Internal error: Segmentation
fault.  Next it tells me to file a bugreport to bugzilla. Then it says
make[1]:*** [menubox.o] error1.  It leaves taht dirrectory and then says
make:*** [menuconfig] error2 .

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.download kernal 2.4.1 from www.kernal.org
2.extract kernal	
3.in terminal under kernal dirrectory run "make menuconfig"
	

Actual Results:  The configuration stops and I am unable to procede

Expected Results:  A menu should have appeared and I shoud have been able
to configure, make,  and install the new kernal.

Do you still get this error if you don't overclock the CPU?

Assuming CPU overclock is cause
