boot-menu: Memtest86+

Message

#1 Post by **Duliwi** » Sat Apr 13, 2024 4:09 am

Hello

Why do we no longer have the option Memtest86+ when we boot MX-23 Xfce?
(We had this option in MX-19.)

Just out of curiosity. Actually this was once a nice feature.

The boot item is still there when booted from the live media (DVD/ISO/USB), called Memory Test.

What's the output of this?

Code: Select all

ls -la /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+

Normally it's

Code: Select all

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root ... /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+

One can sudo chmod -x to disable and ... +x to enable back ...

Yes, that's my output:

Code: Select all

$ ls -la /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1444 10. Mai 2023  /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+

Does this mean that it should actually appear in the boot menu?

Actually the entry is empty in grub.cfg

Code: Select all

### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ###
### END /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ###

So it must be disabled somewhere else.

I still have it.

The weird thing is that they are not commented out in 20_memtest86+

Code: Select all

if [ ! -e "$efi_dir" ] && [ -e /boot/memtest86+.bin ]; then
  MEMTESTPATH=$( make_system_path_relative_to_its_root "/boot/memtest86+.bin" )
  echo "Found memtest86+ image: $MEMTESTPATH" >&2
  cat << 'EOF'
if [ "${grub_platform}" == "pc" ]; then
true
menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" {
EOF
  printf '%s\n' "${prepare_boot_cache}"
  cat << EOF
	$LX	$MEMTESTPATH
}
fi
EOF
fi

if [ -e "$efi_dir" ] && [ -e /boot/uefi-mt/mtest-64.efi ]; then
  MEMTESTPATH=$( make_system_path_relative_to_its_root "/boot/uefi-mt/mtest-64.efi" )
  echo "Found mtest-64.efi image: $MEMTESTPATH" >&2
  cat << 'EOF'
if [ "${grub_platform}" == "efi" ]; then
   if [ "${grub_cpu}" == "x86_64" ]; then
true
menuentry "Memory Test (64-bit UEFI)" {
EOF
  printf '%s\n' "${prepare_boot_cache}"
  cat << EOF
	chainloader	$MEMTESTPATH
}
  fi

and it generates that in your grub.cfg (on a uefi machine) but not here on a Bios (non-uefi)

It may be this:

It's looking for /boot/memtest86+.bin

However the existing files are named differently::

/boot/memtest86+ia32.bin
/boot/memtest86+x64.bin

Yep. After copying the existing file with that name :

Code: Select all

sudo cp /boot/memtest86+x64.bin /boot/memtest86+.bin

... it's there:

Code: Select all

$ sudo update-grub
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found ...
...
Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin

Code: Select all

### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ###
if [ "${grub_platform}" == "pc" ]; then
true
menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" {
	insmod part_msdos
	insmod ext2
	set root=...
	if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
	  search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root -...
	else
	  search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root ...
	fi
	linux16	/boot/memtest86+.bin
}
fi
### END /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ###

Wow. This was successful.

Thank you Charlie Brown.

(Yes I do not boot with UEFI. Sorry that I have not mentioned this.)
