2.4.23 hard lock, 100% reproducible.

I had the exact same thing happen to me about
a year ago, with the same error message. It
started after I had upraded my kernel. It
turned out one of my RAM sticks had gone
bad. Do you have another machine you can
test 2.4.23 with?

I did get msgs twice here in the past few hours,
but only sometimes does it give anything. Here's
what it said:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer
dereference at virtual address: 00000000

printing eip:
c02363dd
*pde=00000000
Oops: 0000
CPU: 0
EIP: 0010:[<c02363d>] Not tainted
EFLAGS: 00010217

eax: 00000006 ebx: 00000000 ecx: 7a01a8c0 ecx: c700b2a0
esi: c0299ce0 edi: 000001b7 ebp: c0299d94 esp: c0299c54
ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018

process: swapper (pid: 0, stackpage = c0299000)

Other than that, nothing. Is there a patch out there
that will simply make 2.4.22 secure? Things run great
on that kernel.
