Sorry for reviving this old thread but memtest86+ just hit 6.20 milestone and it looks like they restored non-UEFI boot support. Looks like it could be done for both types of systems as easy as this (assuming you're using grub2 for booting the kernel):
menuentry 'memtest86+' { insmod part_gpt insmod ext2 set root='hd0,gpt1' if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,gpt1 --hint-efi=hd0,gpt1 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,gpt1 <actual fs uuid> else search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root <actual fs uuid> fi linux /boot/memtest64.efi }
Should we just start moving forward away from the quite antique 5.xx version?
Yes, please! :D
