Richard, thanks for the pointer to the tests in '/usr/sunvts', as this
is the first I have heard of them. They look quite comprehensive.
I will give them a trial when I have some free time.

Yes, I'm not surprised. I thought it would be a RAM problem.
I always recommend a 'memtest' on any new hardware.
Murphy's law predicts that you only have RAM problems
on PC's that you don't test!

Ok, well I fired up Memtest and had a failure on the first run. I've run it
twice more and have yet to manage to get it through a full run. Memory problem
it is. :(
Sorry to bother everyone. Thanks for the help.

I'll give this a shot tonight when I get home. I believe that Ubuntu liveCDs
have a memtest boot option on them, if not I've got a Memtest disc somewhere.

I should have mentioned in my first post that this is the very first thing I
thought, and that I've already swapped the power supply with one I know can
handle the load (an Enermax 400W which ha

Do you by chance mean Silicon Image with that "SI"? Their chipsets
aren't exactly known for reliability and data safety. Just pointing that
out as potential source of problems.
