Bug#1004126: memtest86+.iso does not boot from USB
Package: memtest86+
Version: 5.31b+dfsg-2
Severity: minor
(Severity: minor, because the experimental version is affected)
I tried dd'ing the memtest86+.iso to two differen USB sticks. Both don't
boot on two different older ThinkPad Notebooks (one T520 and one X121e)
- the systems just fall back to the Boot Menu. The Free-as-in-Beer
memtest.iso from memtest86.com works fine on both boxes.
Greetings
Marc
