The Ubuntu CD may not be meant to be the world's best all-singing all-dancing diagnostic/repair CD, but it *is* meant to have some basic functions along those lines. Including memtest on the CD is very useful since it means we can easily ask people to run it when they run into strange bugs, without the concern that it would be difficult for them to get their hands on it.
