I think Peter was just anticipating the response of his hardware vendor.
Anyway, the SuSE installation disks include Memtest86+ as one of their
boot options.
Do they now?
It used to be only Memtest86 (a several year old version).
I found Memtest86+ when the one on the SUSE CD/DVD would not run on
some of our hardware. I don't remember if Memtest86+ did or not.
Once I found it on floppy, I just keep a couple floppies around. I
don't even try the one on CD anymore.
