    I'm using Dell 2850 servers with RAID1/RAID5 set up and have successfully created an image from within windows to a Lacie 500gb bigdisk USB drive. I'm attempting to restore the image on the bigdisk to an identical Dell 2850 server. I created the rescue cd and when the new server booted from it, here's what happened.
    I got the TIS splash screen, then
    Loading, please wait...
    Eventually I get a text screen with the following:
    ------
    unable to handle kernel null pointer dereference at virtual address 00000048
    *pde=00000000
    Oops=0000
    CPU 1
    Then I get stack and call trace hex values. The last thing on the screen is
    <0> kernel panic. killing interrupt handler!
    In interrupt handler - not syncing
    ------

    What's going on? I can boot this server into the OS just fine. Right now, the virtual CPU option is turned off and I have two physical CPUs. I am using a USB keyboard and mouse in the front ports and the bigdisk is plugged into a USB port on the back. I'm using version 8 build 903.
