DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: adding memtest86

Would like to have memtest included in dsl... I have nother live CD that came with memtest 86 on it, and it is amazing how often you test for bad memory when you have a computer that is unstable. I don't know if it will fit but it sure would be handy.

I second that. Memtest86 is the perfect tool for the perfect diagnosis distro. It could be included as a boot option, like Gentoo's LiveCDs have.

If you want to add memtest86, go for it.

My guess is that since there is barely enough space for the DSL files, it will be difficult to keep the disk size under the non-negotiable 50MB limit.

But if you want to make your own custom CD, go for it.

Good Luck.

Or, you could make a .dsl of it and make it avaiable for everyone!

memtest86 is best used from a fresh boot,
without any OS or programs loaded in ram besides memtest iself..
