[Bug 19885] Re: memtest86+: does not work: wouldn't fit into memory
Still exists in Maverick. Also, maverick adds two more memtest options to grub, experimental multiboot, that are also broken, but in a different way; they only see 640K of memory. Anyway, regular memtest still fails to load, new memtest loads but only sees 640K. Now four broken options in default grub menu. -- memtest86+: does not work: wouldn't fit into memory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 19885] Re: memtest86+: does not work: wouldn't fit into memory
AFAIK this bug occurs in computers with more than 1 GB RAM, sometimes bug appears when you add more RAM. I guess, that another reason can be installation of memtest in big hard disks, when memtest86+.bin file is placed not in first partition. According to email from Debian bugreport this bug can be fixed by using ELF executable version of memtest86 and one-line patch: From: Rajeev V. Pillai rajeev_v_pil...@yahoo.com To: 319...@bugs.debian.org Subject: memtest86+: does not work: wouldn't fit into memory [PATCH] Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2007 I've managed to boot both memtest86 (v3.2) and memtest86+ (v1.65 and v1.70) using grub by following the steps below: 1. Use the ELF executable version of memtest (file memtest) instead of the zImage i.e. directly bootable version (file memtest.bin). 2. Apply the patch below which changes 1 line - the load address of the ELF executable from 0x1 to 0x10. Otherwise, grub complains: Error 7: Loading below 1MB is not supported 3. Make the binaries as usual by typing `make'. 4. Load the ELF executable memtest like this: title Memtest86+ v1.70 root (hd0,2) # Change this for your setup kernel --type=netbsd /boot/memtest ** Attachment added: Memtest86+ patch for loading ELF version with GRUB http://launchpadlibrarian.net/32667837/memtest86-fit-in-memory-patch.diff -- memtest86+: does not work: wouldn't fit into memory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
