(Semi-off topic, but I would appreciate any help...)
What does Linux do with memory parity and ECC errors on the i386 architectures? I find no references to same in the 2.0.x kernel sources. (There are references for some of the non-i386 architectures.)
The hardware in question is an Intel PentiumPro with the Natoma (82440FX) chipset (Intel VS440FX motherboard). The technical specs say that ECC is supported if parity memory is used.
Some of these hardware docs are also ambiguous. Would someone more knowledgeable than I be willing to go off-mailing-list to help me clear this up?
Thanks, Doug
