memtest86+ for Debian
---------------------

Three binary images are provided:

- A legacy /boot/memtest86+.bin that uses Linux zImage boot
    protocol.

- An experimental multiboot /boot/memtest86+_multiboot.bin image
    that follows the Multiboot specification.

- A /boot/memtest86+.elf, should works on most of the systems but
    in same cases where don't work the bin instead works, elf also
    don't support serial console.

memtest86+ is automatically registered against grub2.  For
other bootloaders you'll need to do some manual setup (see
examples/grub-menu.lst for GRUB Legacy or examples/lilo.conf for LILO),
or to make a boot-floppy, and reboot on this image.

An iso image to make it easier to use is also available as
/usr/lib/memtest86+/memtest86+.iso.

There are some grub2 variable supported in /etc/default/grub:

- GRUB_DISABLE_MEMTEST: if true don't add any memtest86+ entries
  - GRUB_MEMTEST_DISABLE_SERIAL: if true don't add serial entries
  - GRUB_MEMTEST_ENABLE_MULTIBOOT: if true add experimental multiboot
  - GRUB_MEMTEST_SERIAL_PARAMS: custom serial parameters, default is
    ttyS0,115200n8
