There is no "i386" support in 2.6 kernels.  The 386 hasn't been sold in
a LONG, LONG time.  The supported architectures are "i586", "i686",
"x86_64", "ppc", "ppc64", "ppc64iseries", "s390", "s390x", "sparc",
"sparc64" and "ia64".  This is controlled by the "*.config" files you
find in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES after installing the kernel source RPM.

Try

    rpmbuild -bb target=i686 /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/kernel-2.6.spec

to build it for 99% of all 32-bit Intel chips you'll find out there.
The trick is to specify "target=" followed by one of the choices above.
