Sorry, should have added that it's in FreeBSD 5.3. Does anyone know if
there is any way to stress-test the PCI bus (preferably without external
cards)?

I have an IWILL KK266-R (VIA KT133A/686B) board with an 1.4GHz
processor running as a FreeBSD file & web server. The NIC is an Intel
EtherExpress PRO/100 (I think it's called, fxp anyway). This board has
an AMI RAID controller (CMD 649) onboard, which I use for all four
drives (although not in RAID).
My problem:
Files uploaded to this server are sometimes corrupted. It doesn't have
to be under high load, like directly uploading from a computer. It can
also occur when I'm downloading from the internet on a computer, and
save the file to the server. Another thing that is wierd, is that when
the computer is fresh from a boot, there is always a few netstat Oerrs
(5-30 I've seen this far) errors occuring when downloading or
uploading, and never again.
I have run mprime stresstest for a good while, with no complaints. I
have also tried another NIC, and also moving the NIC to other PCI
slots. I've tried with kernels without APIC, tried disabling ACPI, and
I've also disabled throttling. My friend is running a similar setup on
his server, although a KT266A chipset, and no RAID controller
(southbridge IDE), and it is solid as a rock.
Anyone have any ideas what might be causing these corruptions?
Chipset? NIC? RAID controller?
