However, indeed memtest even under a debian precompiled kernel gives a segmentation fault.
Time to replace the DIMMs.
Thanks Paolo. Would have taken me a while to get to that.

hi all,
i've been custom compiling kernels for a while now and just tried the 2.6.9 version. i use kernel-package and debian's packages. running my 2.6.8 kernel i compiled a 2.6.9 kernel using make oldconfig, nothing relevant appeared (though i did add an extra version tag), so the config file is essentially as it was.
after booting with the new kernel, gcc seems to sporadically give internal compiler error: segmentation fault errors. i've tried going up to gcc-3.4 but that doesn't change anything. the problem is most prevalent with kernel compilation.
system is debian unstable on a 1GHz AMD Athlon. any thoughts? has something changed in the kernel that i missed?
Not much detail, but it does look like a hardware problem. Does going back to the old kernel make the problem go away? Try having your DIMMs tested via memtest also
