The user. I advocate doing what is done in Fedora, you get a boot prompt from the CD and then you can type "memtest" and press ENTER if you want to test the memory. Otherwise you have the regular options. I'm not aware of memtest taking any parameters, you just boot it and it can then take a minor amount of configuration at run-time. I recommend that you try out a Fedora install, this is not the only idea that is worth copying. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
