[comp.unix.wizards] memory problems on Sun ?

roland@umecs.UUCP (Roland Hedberg) (06/05/87)

Some weeks ago we go ourself more memory to our Sun2/120, which is the 
server for 3 Sun2/50's . Since then we have had some system crashes due to
bus error, and yesterday we were hit be what you can see below.

Can someone out there be so kind as to tell me what is happening ?
I do suspect that the memoryboard we got is not functioning properly ,
but I still would like to know what happend.

many thanks !!
