	I have tried it and it doesnot work.
	linuxbios resets at the jmp instruction, where it is supposed to jump from
rom to ram. So how is memtest payload supposed to work, if there's a problem
with ram initialization.
	Any other suggestions on how to use memtest.

Regards,
Shubhangi

use memtest INSTEAD of etherboot as the payload. I have a memtest elfimage
lying around here somewhere if you need it.
