=== Memtester ===
[http://pyropus.ca/software/memtester/ Memtester FIXME] is a userspace utility for testing the memory subsystem for faults. It is a part of some distributions. For Fedora Core:<pre>yum install memtester</pre> For Gentoo:<pre>emerge memtester</pre> The good thing is you can test your memory without a need to reboot the server, and you can run other programs with it. The bad thing is not all the memory is tested. Invoke memtester as a root, giving an amount of memory it will test as an argument, e.g.:<pre># /usr/sbin/memtester 512M</pre> The more memory you will specify the better.
