Peter - keep pushing lots of data to be sure. I had the same problem and 'solution' on an ASUS mobo, but I found that every once in a while the Corrupted MAC error comes back on atl1e , though much more infrequently. Switching to a different gigabit network card/driver results in zero errors, so I think main memory is OK. My basic test wound up being:
1) dd if=/dev/urandom of=bigfile bs=1G count=60 2) md5sum bigfile > bigfile.md5 3) cp bigfile* /mnt/usbdrive 4) nc the file over on gigabit, like comment #63 5) on the other computer verify the md5sum (prove the USB transfer) and: cmp bigfile /mnt/usbdrive/bigfile 6) and if there's a failure, use vbindiff to find them I was contacted by someone at Atheros over the summer to verify the fault but haven't heard back since sending my report. I also have the ASUS 1000HE with this fault and no memory BIOS to tweak (also no faults on -n wireless NIC, SATA, or USB busses at full throttle). -- Large file transfer gives error: Corrupted MAC on input https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/60764 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
