Package: linux-image-amd64 Severity: wishlist It would be very nice to have 'memtest' option enabled by default in all Debian kernels. This tiny feature is only activated with boot-time parameter so it is harmless, but powerful for those who want to use it. As described in http://onlyjob.blogspot.com/2011/01/memtest-explained-linux- kernel.html memtest can dramatically increase robustness and to some degree protect from data corruption on systems with bad RAM.
