memtest86+ 1.65-1 (i386 binary) in ubuntu dapper
thorough real-mode memory tester
Memtest86+ scans your RAM for errors.
.
This tester runs independently of any OS - it is run at computer
boot-up, so that it can test *all* of you memory. You may want to
look at `memtest' (in package `sysutils'), which allows to test
your memory within Linux, but this one won't be able to test your
whole RAM.
.
It can output a list of bad RAM regions usable by the BadRAM kernel
patch, so that you can still use you old RAM with one or two bad bits.
.
Memtest86+ is based on memtest86 3.0, and adds support for recent
hardware, as well as a number of general-purpose improvements,
including many patches to memtest86 available from various sources.
.
A convenience script is also provided to make a grub-based floppy or
image.
