    When I netboot using UEFI the memtest doesn’t work

    exec format error
    chainloading failed

    Do you guys have a working memtest bin for the UEFI version?

      FOG as well as most linux distributions use Memtest86+ This utility is opensource and does not support uefi booting. There is also another Memtest86 (note no + in the name). This software is produced by PassMark. The PassMark software does support uefi memory testing. I don’t know if this software is plugin replaceable for Memtest86+ or not.

      Someone with linux skills might accept PassMark’s eula and download their linux software and give it a go. It might be trivial to extract the required files from the iso download and swap out the memtest86+ version for the memtest86 version. I have no idea if it will work or not.

      Because Memtest86 from PassMark is not part of most linux distributions, the FOG Project can not distribute that version.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!
