Memory/disk Problems with s2875 Tyan dual-processor motherboard I have 4 gig of ram. If, in the bios, I enable the memory hole so as to get all 4 gig of ram in the kernel, and run a stress test as follows:
stress -d 1 -t 10 Then I get a kernel crash almost immediately and have to de-power to reboot. If I disable the memory hole, I only get 3.2 gigs, but I can run the test without crashing. I am running sarge packaged kernel, uname -a gives: Linux athena 2.6.8-12-amd64-k8-smp #1 SMP Mon Jul 17 00:17:20 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux It is from the sarge package: kernel-image-2.6.8-12-amd64-k8-smp - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.8 on AMD64 SMP systems This crash also occurs when I do large file copies. A ubuntu 2.6.11 kernel with amd64 and 32 bit applications does not seem to have the problem while copying files. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
