Title: Installation problem: "in swapper task - not syncing&qu
Post by: Ben on March 08, 2002, 10:28:46 AM

Hello,

i have no experience in using linux and e-smith...but i wanted
to install e-smith on my future server K6-2 400Mhz with 128Ram...

when i boot with the cd rom, the first welcoming screen shows up,
i type in "accept" and then the install tries to start, stop at the
end of the screen, some message errors are:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer deference at virtual address 00000000
convert-> tss.cr3= 00101000, %cr3=00101000

and another message error is:

Kernal panic: attempted to kill the idle task

and the last one is:

In swapper task - not syncing

I have no clue what all that means..is it some kind of hardware...?

Thanks in advance, any help appreciated!

Ben.
