Re: DualCore Dual-Opteron Board - suggestion?
Here's AMD's bulletin on erratum 122:

I have not stressed my system enough to encounter it.
Here's AMD's latest online revision doc:
http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/25759.pdf
Errata 118-136 affect dual-core opterons. I came across only 122 in
regards to Linux.
