      Aside from memtest86, does anyone know of any hardware tests I can run on an alix2d13 to verify the hardware is functioning correctly (or identify failing hardware)?

      I ran memtest86, and it completed all of it's normal test suite (at which point it starts to run random read/write tests until you kill it) without finding any errors. The test ran for about 61 minutes, and I let the random tests go for another 15 minutes without error.

      (I asked this on the pcengines support forum as well, but thought someone over here might have a suggestion).

      Thanks!

        PC Engines wrote back and said I could try booting voyage linux and run the burnK6 program from the cpuburn package to stress test the cpu (since their thought is that it's memory or cpu and the memory test completed a 2nd round of tests that ran without error for ~9.5 hours).

        Also, doktornotor suggested generating DH 4096 as described here:https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Importing_OpenVPN_DH_Parameters

        I've run into this situation years ago and I'm always surprised that there doesn't seem to be any software to test/verify specific components.
