Hello,
I'm trying to install the i386 version of
Debian which I downloaded at linuxiso.org. I downloaded all 7 discs, and
booted up the computer I'm working on with the first disc. The boot screen
came up, so I hit <ENTER>. It went through some detecting and other
processes, then ended in:
Freeing unused kernel memory: 72k
freed
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
at virtual address 00000000
current->tss.cr3 = 00101000, %cr3 = 00101000
*pde = 00000000
Oops: 0002
CPU: 0
EIP: 0010: [<c412800e>]
EFLAGS: 00010292
eax: 00000000 ebx: 00000000 ecx:
cf450000 edx: 00000000

Process swapper (pid: 1, process nr: 1, stackpage = cffdb000)
Stack: [a bunch of hexadecimal sets here, I can get them if it's important
to solving my problem]
Call Trace: [more hexadecimal, see above]
Code: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
I also got an error in about the same place that said:
Kernel panic: init not found, please supply init= option
But I haven't been getting that error any more for some reason, just the
null pointer one. I'm trying to get some sort of Linux on my computer so I
can get away from Windows, but after trying to install RedHat 1000 times and
failing, I thought I'd try a different flavor of Linux.
System Specs:
333 MHz AMD Processor
256 MB SDRAM
6 GB hard drive
32x CD-ROM drive
32 MB video card
If you need any more information to figure out what's wrong, let me know
and I can try and get it. Any help towards what might be wrong would be
appreciated!
Thank you,
