🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so memtest-setup is the utility that installs Memtest86+ into the GRUB 2 boot loader menu. It installs the GRUB 2 template into the /etc/grub.d directory. slay. 💅

the GRUB 2 configuration file needs to be regenerated manually by running:

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

bestie, this is not done automatically, because it could overwrite any custom changes in the GRUB 2 configuration file. so yes, you gotta do it yourself — no cap. 🫶

• -b, --bin — installs a binary Memtest86+ image. periodt.
• -e, --elf — installs an ELF Memtest86+ image (this one is the default). 👑
• -h, --help — prints a help message and exits. iconic.
