memtest86+ 4.20-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

memtest86+ (4.20-1ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian (LP: #772252).  Remaining changes:
    - Only run update-grub in the postrm on remove/purge.
    - Drop the multiboot image from the GRUB menu for now, since it's
      experimental and has known problems detecting all memory on some
      systems at the moment.

memtest86+ (4.20-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Acknowledge NMU.
  * Adjust makeiso.sh to call genisoimage.
  * Produce a memtest86+.iso using makeiso.sh and ship it in
    /usr/lib/memtest86+/.  Add build-dep on genisoimage.
  * Drop the old make-memtest86+-boot-floppy script, which was dependant
    on grub-legacy, and whose usefulness is much lower now that we ship an
    iso.  Closes: #591578.
  * Advertise multiboot as experimental in README.Debian.

memtest86+: 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 your memory. You may want to
 look at `memtester', 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 your 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.
 .
 Both memtest86 and memtest86+ are being worked on in parallel.
