I said to Bernd last night I was going to run memtest over night. I didn't think I'd find anything as the bits were brand new when I bought them two months ago. However, memtest86 found some bad RAM around the 280MB mark and promptly locked hard just like the kernel does. It was always the same bit stuck, a pattern ffffffff coming back as feffffff and 00000000 coming back as 01000000. Bit unusual perhaps, a stuck bit that inverts itself. The addresses where errors was detected was quite symmetrical as well, ending in 3e0, 3e8, 3f0, 3f8, 400, 408, 410, 418. I'm ordering a replacement DIMM today, and once it turns up, memtest is seeing some action again.
