I upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 in place from update manager on AMD
Athlon64 3200+ 2000 MHz 1024K cache.  Apparently the ECC issue is kernel
2.6.31 specific having to do with "EDAC amd64_edac:  Ver: 3.2.0 Oct 16
2009".  It does not happen if I boot alternate kernel 2.6.28-16 (ECC not
even mentioned in that).  Nothing in my BIOS or CMOS settings even
mentions ECC.

The alternate kernel 2.6.28-16 seems to work fine, so I will stick with
that for now.
