Support memtest86 (Passmark version)

Just attempted to use this image from their website and it wasn't picked up.

I think I made a mistake yesterday. That file is an img file, and not an iso file. I'll both try converting it to an iso file, as well as trying the bin file from their website too see if either of those options work, and will report back.

Hi @vamega!

If you check our project's page for Memtest86, you can see that only the ISO and binary from http://www.memtest.org work. You can make the ISO from http://www.memtest86.com work if you rename it to something like memtest86-7.4.iso.

That file is an img file, and not an iso file.

Indeed, that USB image file won't work, but the downloadable ISO should work.

So the iso from http://memtest96.com works, however it seems like it only works when booting in BIOS mode?

Is it possible to use memdisk to chainload the UEFI executable on an iso? I noticed that this was the case with netboot.xyz as well.

MEMDISK doesn't work on UEFI, that's why netboot.xyz won't boot in UEFI mode either.

However, for MemTest86, there is an EFI image that can be chainloaded, so commit 3017e3a should fix this.

What is the final solution? The latest memtest86 does not have a ISO image :(
