Hi,

I'm trying to use grub2 (current svn) netboot to boot memtest86+-2.01.

Netboot already works and the b/w menu shows up.

here's my grub.cfg:

.. snip ..
set timeout=100
set default=0

menuentry "memtest86+-2.01" {
   linux /memtest86+-2.01
}
.. snip ..

When I execute this command, grub2 complains:
error: too small lower memory (0x99100 > 0x89000)

What's wrong?
What is the correct grub.cfg entry for booting memtest86+ ?


Best regards,
     joerg

Can you reproduce this with qemu?  (using the same memtest image)
