as I said in a prior message, that is very possible.

Here is the panic message I copied down by hand, followed by the
dmesg for the machine when booted with PNP OS set to 'yes'.  This
panic text appears immediately after the message:

Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle

and is preceeded by two blank lines.  As you see, this is a fresh
install, I haven't even gotten around to a custom kernel yet.

Fatal trap 12: page trap while in kernel mode
fault virtual address		= 0x1c
fault code			= supervisor read, page not present
IP				= 0x8:0xc011e685
... <rest of the registers>
processor flags			= interrupt enabled, resume,
IOPL=0
current process			= idle
interrupt mask			=
trap number			= 12
panic: page fault

Syncing disks ... done
Automatic <rest of the stuff>


This is the dmesg when booted with PNP OS set to yes:
