Cyrus, if you refer to the documentation I think you'll find malloc error means that memtest is encountering difficulty allocating the given amount of memory for testing (presumably because it's in use). It keeps trying, reducing the memory size (or trying a different block) until it is able to allocate that memory block size to testing and proceeds with its tests. __________________________________________ Graeme Robinson - Graenet computer services Linux server integration - Mitel partner (SME server) http://www.graenet.com ph: 0408 130 316 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Searchable archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
