I think I mentioned this already but I use the Cerberus test suite

http://sourceforge.net/projects/va-ctcs/

Haven't had to use it in a while but works quite well, a lot of
big OEMs use it as well for their burn in tests. For me it found
problems much faster than memtest86. Apparently it was developed
by VA Linux(If your familiar with that name)

Been meaning to setup a pxe linux boot environment with this in
there so I can run it without the full blown OS on there, but
haven't had a chance yet.
