They just closed the sources. Memtest86 is a commercial product now. It
has full UEFI support, etc.
I'm referring to memtest86+ not memtest86
http://www.memtest.org
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=829
It's a bit confusing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memtest86
memtest86 is proprietary and the latest versions are uefi only.
memtest86+ uses a free license and is bios only. pcmemtest supports
both uefi and bios, and also has a free license.
