RAM Probe - Advanced Diagnostic Tool

LINUX USERS:

RAM Probe can be used to print BadRAM boot values. This will allow patched Linux kernels to used damaged memory modules and still function normally. For more info, see our BadRAM patch for RHEL4.

You might also wish to be able to launch ramprobe via lilo at boot time. To do this simply copy the ramprobe.bin binary to /boot. Now edit the /etc/lilo.conf file similar to the following:

prompt
timeout=50
default=2.6.9-5.0.3.EL
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
lba32
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL
label=2.6.9-5.0.3.EL
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.img
read-only
root=/dev/hda3
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-5.0.3.ELsmp
label=2.6.9-5.0.3.ELs
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.0.3.ELsmp.img
read-only
root=/dev/hda3
image=/boot/ramprobe-1.70.bin
label=ramprobe

Lastly, run lilo and you should see something similar to:

Added 2.6.9-5.0.3.EL *
Added 2.6.9-5.0.3.ELs
