Thank you for the hint. We've already tried to reproduce with MCA =
disabled, and didn't succeed. The thing is, without altering the bios =
default settings, the OS doesn't even get an MCE before the system =
reboots itself showing those "hypertransport sync flood" and "pci =
express fatal error" stuff during POST. So I guess it's safe to say, =
that the problem happens before MCA can kick in.
