* Revert to using linux16 memtest image when using serial console. As
knetbsd + elf + serial console does not work. (LP: #560839)
-- Dave Chiluk
So I got a report that this change has regressed console memtest86+. I
have verified that precise package in my ppa does indeed cause the
regression on the serial console menuentry. I'm installing trusty on my
testbed that has a serial port now, to verify there.
Also as an aside, I tested
I just confirmed with trust.
Loading memtest with
knetbsd /boot/memtest86+.elf console=ttyS0,115200n8
Ignores the serial console option.
Loading memtest with
linux16 /boot/memtest86+.bin console=ttyS0,115200n8
Works, but the above issue would still exist on some machines.
Loading
Here's a patch that only reverts the serial console changes.

Workaround is to boot using ultimate boot cd from CD or usb stick and choose

work with older versions of grub.
