I suspect some parts of my hardware may be suspect. I have run memtest but that did not report any problems.
I get unexpected signals about my cdrom, a lot of signal 11's while trying to compile a kernel, more than usual segmentation faults and X bombing out to many times for my liking. I have a 486 DX 40 with 24 meg ram and two IDE hard drives (1.6 Gig and 540 meg), a CDROM, IOMEGA Ditto 2GB tape drive (which I do not use with ftape any more because it is unreliable in combination with ftape), a handheld scanner and a second serial card to provide a fast serial port for my external modem. What other diagnostic software can I use to determine what is wrong?
