You've given us no information. What version of Linux Lite? What make and model of computer? What kernel?

Run the following command:  sudo dmidecode | grep -e Date -e Vendor -e Version -e Product | head -n 4  Post output here for help.
This does looks like an old BIOS error HP or DELL. Have you ever had any Linux system on this machine before? It is not likely that this would occur on LL 4.8 (some servers excepted) I believe it was resolved on kernels 4.10 and up. Specify if you are on LL 3.8 32 or 64bit, and what kernel you are running as Jerry instructed. You can find a lot of information on this just by googling -- "[SMD6] namespace lookup failure"
