Hi. I tested the old pc with memtest86 and memtest86+ for 16 and 50hours without any errors detected, so apparently the ram is ok.
I now just did another test from a freshley booted old pc, standingidle for around 2 hours before I started the testing (no network activitybefore I plugged in the cable just before starting testing).
The copying failed after just 2.62GB, so the logs are short andnice. Stored on same server as earlier, new 2008-06-19 directory. Onething I noticed in the dmesg output on the old pc was the following:
