Hi,

I recognize this address:

>>> BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00100100

Is this a magic value? I also got it, see for example:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/21/426

Google will also recognize it:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q="unable+to+handle+kernel+paging+request"+00100100

Where does it come from?
