Hoi Jan Willem, I would tend to agree with Doug White about a "make world" being a good memory test. However, I suspect Doug has the kind of system that will do a make world in a minute or two. You should run "make world" to verify your test results, but if you've just plopped in a new SIMM,

Since FreeBSD systems will start pumping out random signal 11's in the face of bad memory, try searching the -hardware and -questions list for that. I believe that someone actually wrote a signal 11 FAQ, but I don't have a pointer. I'll go and see if I can find something like that. I
