To check for RAM failures on running system:

Install memtester tool:

yum install memtester

If yum does not work (because of possible RAM failure), download memtester RPM and its dependencies and install those:

rmp -Uvh file.rpm

Run test:

memtester 5 1

if output shows lines which starts with "FAILURE", RAM module is faulty. It has to be replaced.
