If you need another firewall in the interim, I would suggest giving
IPCop a try. I've been using it as a gateway OS for 5 years now and it's
been solid for the entire time.
Or, if you'd really rather stick with Gentoo, you could run IPCop on
another of your K6 machines until you rebuild the Gentoo
, worst thing ever...
So I got rid of that and went for a board with an NVidia chipset :)

An alternative to running memtest (which is quite easy to do, I might

with the new RAM only.
Alternatively, you could just run memtest, as it is included with many
BIOSs now. It doesn't take long to identify problems, if there
