Package: kernel-patch-badram (2.6.28.2-1.1)

[ Source: kernel-patch-badram  ]

Kernel patch allowing to use partly-bad RAM modules

This package contains a patch to the Linux kernel, which allows to tell the kernel which parts of a RAM module are bad. This allows you to use old RAM modules, when for example just 1 bit in your 256MB module makes it otherwise unusable.

Packages memtest86 and memtest86+ allow to test the RAM for such problems, and are able to tell you what parameters to give to a badram-enabled kernel.
