you just add an entry to grub and boot from that. Worked for me when I
ran it.

If you are using lilo add:
image=/boot/memtest86/memtest.bin
label=memtest

... to /etc/lilo.conf

If you are using grub:
title = Memory Testing Utility (MemTest-86 v2.4)
kernel = (hd0,0)/boot/memtest86/memtest.bin

... to grub.conf (note that hd0,0 should be changed to whatever your boot partition actually is [also note I don't use grub, but I believe this will work]).
