If you want some help, you should try sending your email to the
debian-user@lists.debian.org mailing list (it's archive is browsable at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/ )
I have CC'ed that mailing list. Please remove the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] recipients when you
reply.
Make sure you say which version of Virtual PC you use in your mail (VPC
2007 ; English ; 32 bits ??).
I don't have VPC, but I have two hints :
- The error "Freeing unused kernel memory" in VPC seems to occur when
you allocate more that 512Mb of RAM. (!)
- You might want to try alternate Virtualisation tool, like
http://virtualbox.org , http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu or
http://www.vmware.com/ which are known to work properly.

The emails sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] are processed automatically. They
really have to be "with a special format", as explained at
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting
So don't be offended because it says your email was discarded, just
re-submit your bug-report with a valid header.
You can use this report as a template to re-submit your bug.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=469821
Bug reports are very useful so Debian Developers are aware of problem,
and they can fix it.

No comments.
I hope you'll find a solution.
