You may use cpuburn to test RAM/CPU too.
Although I have a memory which, when clocked a bit too high, pass both memtest86 and cpuburn for extended periods of time, yet large compile runs die with sig11 sometimes. Using a tiny bit less aggressive clocking helped. :) -- vda - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
