Kernel Panic with Sarge
When just about to open a LaTeX file for
editing, the screen beeped, the following syslogd
messages appeared in xterm and then
the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock lights started
flashing in unison with the screen
completely frozen. Ctrl-Alt-F1 didn't work
so had to reboot from the Power button.
kernel: CPU 0 : Machine Check Exception:
0000000000000004
kernel: Bank 4 : b200000000040151
kernel: Kernel panic: CPU context corrupt
After the reboot both the green power
light and the orange disk light on the front of the PC
are steady (i.e. not flickering).
Has anyone any suggestions please as to the possible
cause of this ?
Debian Sarge is being run on a 650 Mhz Pentium III
machine.
Screen freezes have occurred before with this same
setup (as previously reported to the Debian Users
Group) but without the above messages.
