I don't want to wait days while my system boots. A cursory check That verifies the memory doesn't totally suck is ok. But I don't want to see anything that conveys the impression that LinuxBIOS has actually checked the memory. The best tests I know of involve monitoring for ECC errors while the system is being stressed. > Some time 8 ways system, every cpu has 4 dimm, total memay will be > 4G*4*8=128G. I'm not certain you can plug that many 4G dimms into an Opteron. At the very least they are a challenge to come by... As for setting up and debugging memory the first system with LinuxBIOS on the Opteron Lighting had 6TB of ram...
