Package: memtest86
Severity: important
Tags: patch


Some people (like me ;) are still using serial consoles; memtest86 has an option to enable it (one 
small change in config.h), but it's disabled by default (since it slows down the test). It would 
be nice to build (differently named, perhaps) package that includes serial-console support. Tagged 
'important' because even though it's fairly easy to configure basic components of Debian system 
(boot loader, kernel messages, login console, etc...), but standard memtest86 does not work that 
way.

Exactly the same bug and patch applies to memtest86+ - I shall not report it twice.

Regards,

M.
