https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D211204 Bug ID: 211204 Summary: loading memtest86+ reboots the system Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: bourne.identity@hotmail.com I am using FreeBSD 10.2 amd64. On my earlier i386 installation, memtest86+ = ran perfectly. I recently upgraded my hardware, moving from EVM 2GB DDR3 RAM to Hynix (Hyundai) 8 GB DDR3 RAM, after which I moved to FreeBSD 10.2 amd64. W= hen at the FreeBSD boot loader prompt, I issue the commands : 1) unload # ok till here 2) load /boot/opt/memtest86+ # problem : the system simply does dead/reb= oots Incidentally running memtest86 (not memtest86+) from a bootable CD runs on = the system perfectly, producing zero errors in 2 passes secured in about 75 minutes. I don't think it is important, but just in case it is needed, my system uses MBR partitioning with just 1 partition ada0s4a for the root partition, which holds all data. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
