> Hi, > I have just installed RH9. I find that the machine crashes all of a sudden or just freezes. Since it is not a graceful shutdown, the filesystems don't get synced and this causes a lot of grief when I boot the system again. Are there any logs that I can check which will give me some insight into these unexpected crashes. Does anyone know if there are some known issues with 2.4.20-8 kernel which might cause this. > I don't know anything about the kernel issues, but bad memory can be a culprit in these situations. Try downloading the CD iso at: http://www.memtest86.com, burn it to a CD, then boot from the CD and run the full test several times. If you run the full suite (not just the first 7 default tests) and run it for at least three passes, you're looking at 24 hours, but it will definitely tell you if there are RAM issues.
