Subject: mcelog ?
Date: Mon, 15 May 2006 11:42:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060515114243.8ccaa9aa.skraw@ithnet.com> (raw)

Hello,

can some kind soul please shortly explain what this message tells me:

HARDWARE ERROR
CPU 1: Machine Check Exception:                4 Bank 4: b60a200170080813
TSC 89cfb4725b17 ADDR 1025cb3f0 
This is not a software problem!
Run through mcelog --ascii to decode and contact your hardware vendor
Kernel panic - not syncing: Machine check



Of course I ran mcelog but I don't quite understand how the additional info
helps me finding the problem.
Is this a problem with RAM? And if, which one?

The box is a dual opteron with two banks of mem (4 sockets each), each socket
holding a 1 GB mem module.

Thanks for any hints.

Stephan
