We installed a Mandrake 8.2 with the kernel of
2.4.18 . We are using rsync to backup the data.
After some time, dmesg will print:

__alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0) __alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0xf0/0) __alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1f0/0) __alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0)

This must be caused by the giant datas and memory leaks in Virtual memory management.Does anyone know some solutions? Thanks.
