           Summary: Docs/Beats/Installer mentions "Disc 1" for memtest
           Product: Fedora Documentation
           Version: devel
          Platform: All
               URL: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Installer
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: urgent
          Priority: urgent
         Component: release-notes
        AssignedTo: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org
        ReportedBy: opensource(a)till.name
         QAContact: kwade(a)redhat.com


In http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Installer there is written:

[[Admonition("note", "Memtest86 Availability", "You must boot
from Installation
Disc 1, the DVD, or a rescue CD in order to use this feature.")]]

But there is no official "Disc 1" anymore, only a DVD image, a rescue CD image
and   live cd images, but I do not know, whether or not the live cd images
provide memtest86, too.

I don't know if Live discs have memtest86 either.  But keep in mind our docs are
repurposed by other groups besides just Fedora, including CentOS which provides
installation from multiple-CD sets.  In addition, other groups could respin
Fedora 7 into multiple-CD sets, and this would apply to them as well.  We don't
want to force downstream consumers to rewrite documentation needlessly, so we
try to cover their situation when possible (and when we remember to do so!).

Oops, I forgot we might want to check into the Live CD thing.  But this is
definitely not "urgent" by any stretch.  Reopening.

Maybe there is another problem, I just tried to run memtest86 on the Fedora 7
DVD and on the Live-CD and on both it did not work:
Could not find kernel image. But I do not know, whether or not this is intended.
Maybe you can check it, too.

I just inspected the iso contents. FC-6 did contain memtest86 and at least the
rescue F7 CD image contains a text reference, that one should be able to use
memtest86, but it is not there, too. I will see, whether or not I can find out,
where to fill a bug.
