Hi all,
any idea what a message like this means, this is just when the kernel is loaded from floppy, uncompresses and the below message comes repeated in screenfull.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
the machine is a 486 with 40MB ram, 4.3GB HDD. (dos/windows too are unable to start up apart from the initial messages.) just curious typically which part of hardware could have gone wrong?

typically the Loading Linux........ Uncompressing Linux.......
and then the above message in plenty. i will try running memtest on it if possible to see if the RAM has any errors.
