Interesting. I have only one other report of this problem that resembles

A dmesg and further info would be useful here. Also knowing how much
memory your system has and whether it passes memtest86.

CK804 is known to work reliably. That means we are looking for something
thats "different" about your system - perhaps the devices, the amount of
memory etc.
