- Is is possible to include memtest86 on the install CD as a boot option? One of the first things I do when installing a new machine is to check that everything is sane. In this case, Linux crashed when booting the first time. When I made a memtest floppy, I found that one of the memory sticks was seated poorly and causing memory errors (probably what caused the machine to be given away). It would have been nice to simply do this from the syslinux menu.
I've recommend to a couple of people on debian-user in the past few days that they run memtest86. On the install CD would be a really excellent place for it to be.
