I've noticed for a while running memtest from grub2
menu just gives a blue screen and locks machine.
Had a similar issue running it from grub4dos, but found
running syslinux memdisk and then running program
worked, but exact same thing didn't work with grub2??
So, just tried using the iso versus the memtest.img
extracted from it, and that comes up.
Manually modifed the grub.cfg by coping section that
Fedora creates and making changes??
Have seen messages saying it was broken, but never
found any fixes. So, not sure some can tell why? or if this
would be useful to others to try??
