cybrnook Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Happy new year to the unraid family 🙂 Has the integrated memtest utility been testing to run on UEFI boots? I have all my systems switch from legacy to UEFI boot, but honestly have never used the integrated memtest.....until now 🙂 I am was benchtesting a rig for a friend who runs unraid as well, and we ordered some cheapo OLOy china memory from Newegg (that seemingly works GREAT). But for the life of me could not get unraid memtest to run, it just reboots the system. Unraid itself booted fine, gui and non gui mode. Just couldn't get mem test to go. So UEFI booting was working fine, I was able to get to the main Unraid menu during boot, and arrowed down to the Memtest and selected, would just pause then reboot when selected. I downloaded the latest free standalone, and that boots UEFI fine, and is what I am currently benching on his rig: https://www.memtest86.com/download.htm Just curious if anyone tested this. Maybe it's a secure boot option or something 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment

cybrnook Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 (edited) Welp, that answers that 🙂 Thanks buddy. I am NOT crazy then.... at least that crazy Is there the possibility to roll in the free UEFI compatible version? Or perhaps remove memtest from the menu if UEFI boot is detected?

cybrnook Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 Sure, just wanted to field the community for ideas and input first before shooting right to a feature request. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 The idea is good, just don't know if it's possible, but since I don't think a feature request for that exists it be good to make one. Quote Link to comment
