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

Hi,

I am getting this VM error on 2.4.28kernel(RAM-768MB,
No Swap and the root file system,whose size is around
300MB is loaded as initrd).
After the error the processes are getting killed and
system is rebooted. I am not understanding why the MM
is trying is allocate pages from HIGH Memory
(gfp=0x1d2/0) when I dont have High memory and the
kernel is also not enabled to support High memory. I
have put the printk's to see how kswapd is woken up to
free unused pages because I dont want to run out of
memory.

Here is log:

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