memtest

[Sanzo Miyazawa <miyazawa@smlab.sci.gunma-u.ac.jp>]

I have a question about sysutils_1.3.8.5.1.

I tried to use "memtest" on opteron 244 with 4 GB memory, tyan main board.

Every time I got the error message like the following.

Then I recompiled sysutils_1.3.8.5.1 in 64bits mode.

But still similar error messages are printed.

Does this mean real memory errors or is there a bug in this program?
