I just confirmed with trust. Loading memtest with > knetbsd /boot/memtest86+.elf console=ttyS0,115200n8 Ignores the serial console option.
Loading memtest with > linux16 /boot/memtest86+.bin console=ttyS0,115200n8 Works, but the above issue would still exist on some machines. Loading memtest with > multiboot /boot/memtest86+_multiboot.bin console=ttyS0,115200n8 Displays to both serial and console, but only sees the first 640k of ram. So I think we need to change the console line to use the old method ie. > linux16 /boot/memtest86+.bin console=ttyS0,115200n8 This is unfortunate, as people who are using machines with the BIOS issue will not be able to memtest over serial, but that's the state of things at the moment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/560839 Title: error: too small lower memory (0x99100 > 0x98400) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/memtest86+/+bug/560839/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
