| 03:54.29 | Miklos | Hey guys - I'm having a peculiar problem |
| 03:54.45 | Miklos | Everything in my PXE setup is working smoothly except memtest |
| 03:54.57 | Miklos | I get no error just a blinking cursor in the top left corner |
| 03:55.13 | Miklos | <PROTECTED> |

| 03:55.34 | Miklos | I've tried the memtest that came with sysrec cd |
| 03:55.39 | Miklos | from the official site |
| 03:55.54 | Miklos | both the pre-built one and the one on their usb installer |
| 03:56.08 | Miklos | the usb installer one is the mt86plus |
| 03:56.17 | Miklos | which also uses syslinux and gets called the same way |
| 03:56.25 | Miklos | and works fine off the USB |
| 07:34.58 | Nirkus | Miklos: have you tried booting the exact same file via USB stick? |
| 07:39.35 | Nirkus | I think, you need to download the "Pre-Compiled Bootable Binary", but all the release packages should contain the same memtest86+ binary |
| 08:05.29 | Miklos | they are the same |
| 08:05.31 | Miklos | md5 anyway |
| 08:05.42 | Miklos | and yes I copied the file from a usb I booted fine |
| 08:05.47 | Miklos | via syslinux also |
| 09:11.22 | Nirkus | hm, interesting |
| 09:12.47 | Nirkus | can you test booting the same binary via PXE on different machines? this is the first time that i hear about problems booting memtest via PXE |
| 09:13.07 | Miklos | I'll do that first thing tomorrow - about to leave the office :D |
| 09:13.37 | Nirkus | hehe, ok... we seem to have some severe timeshift here... :D |
| 09:15.19 | Miklos | well I'm leaving a little early today (5:15pm) |
| 09:15.20 | Miklos | :) |
| 09:15.32 | Miklos | Working out of Manila, Philippines atm |
| 12:10.16 | Nirkus | ah ok, Im currently working in Bonn, Germany (14:10 around here) |
