Oh, good pointer, yeah, that would do and allow for online testing to some degree. I found http://feishare.com/linux/memory-hotplug-in-linux and memory0 through memory69 in /sys/devices/system/memory, and only 3 of those are "removable==1". My goal is to bring one of the two 4Gb DIMMs offline, verify that the error I am seeing still exists, bring it back online and take the other offline. How do I find out which memory to hot-remove? Am I right in assuming that I won't be able to remove one-then-the-other as some memory regions may not be movable? -- @martinkrafft | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ "the scientific paper in its orthodox form does embody a totally mistaken conception, even a travesty, of the nature of scientific thought." -- sir peter medawar spamtraps: madduck.bo...@madduck.net
