I have a few questions about those messages.
Being that I have 40M of memory and an 80M swap file, why should I
have gotten the message about being unable to to handle a kernel
paging request?
Remarkably enough, the system kept going even after the oops, but I
wonder why I didn't get a symbol for where in the kernel this
happened? My System.map is there and my log says that the symbols
were loaded.
I also wonder if I should have a more recent kernel or would I be
trading one instability for another (I don't have smp)?
Well, that's all for now and thanks for any help you can give.
