I meant to follow up; I tried the RPM and had the same problem. Should I
file a bug or have you already done this?

I was confused by the behaviour/bug and assumed that the documentation
was incorrect. I am maintaining system records for all of the hosts that
I manage, so the auto-configuration of memtest is not going to do much
in my case anyway.

If I understand correctly, I need to add an entry for memtest in
pxesystem.template if I want it to appear in the system's PXE
configuration file. Is it possible to associate a PXE system template to
a profile? For example, I would like all of my HP servers to have an
entry in their PXE boot menu to boot the HP Firmware Updates CD, but I
do not want this entry to appear for my IBM servers.
