all of a sudden !

Hello,

I recently installed Red Hat 7.1 (2.4.2-2) on a
machine with 2GB HD, 32MB RAM.  It works fine, but
occassionally it throws the following error and it
hangs:

<error>

pgd entry c04....
pmd entry c0...
... pmd not present !
Oops: 0000
CPU: 0
EIP:  0010:....
EFLAGS:  00010...
eax: ...       ebx:........   ecx:....   edx:.....
esi:....       edi:.......    ebp:....   esp:....
ds: ..         es: ...        ss:...
Process ifconfig ( pid: 2136, stackpage=0c....)
Stack: c2826.. ....... ............... ........ ....

Call Trace: .....
Code: 8b 04 ...........
Kernel Panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
In interrupt handler - not syncing

</error>

  I have typed out the error manually on a
neighbouring machine (because my machine hung) and
hence replaced those numbers with dots.

I was just reading a file in a text editor when this
last happened.

Any idea why this happens ?  Any solution ?

thanks in advance.
