See homepage for the new version. Maybe only changed name of ebuild is needed. Also version 5.00-rc1 of memtest86+ is out but i dont found sources. But would be nice if the original memtest86 would be upgraded at first to 4.20. I am testing my ram because of overclocking at the moment ;-)
http://www.memtest86.com/download.htm There is 4.3 beta out. If you look for the source code. It is included in the *.tar.gz files for linux.
Any devs who deal with this?
+*memtest86-4.3.3 (10 Oct 2013) + + 10 Oct 2013; Tony Vroon <chainsaw@gentoo.org> +memtest86-4.3.3.ebuild, + +files/memtest86-4.3.3-build.patch: + Version bump, as requested by Chris "blackstar86" in bug #472704. Sorry about the wait Chris. As compensation, a slightly newer version.
Hello, thanks for the update. But you should better update it to version 4.3.4 which is out since a week or so. Also can you add or fix it that also memtest86.bsd file is build like in memtest86plus? Because I am one of these people who get the to small memory error message on grub2 with memtest86.bin linux file. So I have to use "knetbsd memtest86.bsd" if you understand me right. best regards chris
No sources for that version. Please file a new bug for new suggestions.
