So with the memory mapping on, the torture test didn't hit any errors.
So I'm tempted to use this as a short-term solution, and then at the
weekend I'll looking at swapping the sticks around.
For anyone that's interested: you can do this (on debian) by editing
/etc/default/grub and to the
Are you able to try replacing the ram and see how it behaves?

Try testing ram in another system is another, and very conclusive, test.

Hi Leo
If your memory is on more than one card, try removing them one at a time
and booting up. That's how I identified the dud memory in my PC.
But I expect you've already tried that. :)
Thanks, I hadn't tried that yet actually. However the memtest
if the computer locks up and I then run memtest on reboot it finds
errors in the same memory locations each time. However if I reboot
cleanly it doesn't find errors. The fact it finds them in the same
locations would indicate to me that it's a memory problem. However, I

Hmmm, hadn't thought of that either. There's four slots and two sticks.
So I could move the two sticks to the free slots. I'm running another
mprime test at the mo, so I'll give that a go later.
Thanks,

The fact that it can be reproduced by a soft reboot and it's always the
same memory address suggests this is far from intermittent (though it
depends on your specific meaning). If swapping the ram shows the same
addresses failing it's likely to be motherboard, if the addresses change
its going to

Unfortunately none of my computers share the same RAM type so I'd have
to purchase some more for that. So I thought I'd give this memory
mapping a go first.

What happens if you swap the ram slots (assume you have more than one ram
stick) ?

Before you do... swap them 1 for 1... you can possibly identify which stick
is faulty...

I noticed today that my headless server stopped responding so I had to

anywhere else I can look to see what might have happened?
