Anything printed before that? That's not actually the error, it's just a symptom. (although there may not even be an error before it...)
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual adress 00031d1c

In interrupt handler - not syncing

Any ideas?


Tell us about the older computer, what type of processor, how did you create the swap partition, how much ram, and what version of slackware you are installing.

If possible, please also post the output of: fdisk -l

Cheers,
