Not really. Referencing uncommitted memory usually gets you a trap D.
Trap Es occur when the page tables are not consistent with what the kernel
expects. That's why most trap Ds are application traps and most trap Es
are kernel traps.

What URL page?

See:

What you want is known as the 10/26 kernel because that's when it was
released.

Even that's overkill. All you need to backup is the files you will be
replacing.
