Well, it's not actually the installer. memtestx86 is a completely
standalone thing which we just put on the images, with a boot menu
option: if you pick it, nothing Fedora-ish at all actually runs.

Perhaps:

"All release media must include a standalone memory test utility. A boot
menu option to launch this utility must be present and must work
correctly."
