I have installed a minimalistic RedHat 6.2 with the new 2.2.16-x version of the kernel in the update directory. Everything works well but the next day (this morning) the computer shows nasty messages on my screen. This is a snippet and what I can see on the screen: 54>] [<c010a598>] [<c010f7c3>] ... lot more and I do not want to type more. Code: 02 00 00 03 00 00 00 50 6a 05 e8 41 5e 00 00 83 c4 08 f6 43 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 83fff7fa current->tss.cr3 = 03a8c000, %cr3 = 03a8c000 *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0000 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[<c017e836>] EFLAGS: 00010046 eax: 83fff7f6 ebx: 00000000 ecx: 5f790f08 edx: c019514c esi: c026b648 edi: 000003e8 ebp: c0235e80 esp: c3941e78 ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018 Process syslogd (pid: 436, process nr:15, stackpage=c3941000) Stack: c02857e0 ... 00000001 0000000c Call Trace: [<c019514c>] [<c017fbe0>] [<c017f657>] [<c017f9af>] [<c017fa35>] [<c017ce86>] [<c019514c>] ...

But I do not know... // Ola
Still a problem with the errata kernel? (Changing severity, it's not a security bug).
No answer so assuming ok
