A ipxe (coreboot related?) dev also made a whole bunch of changes. Anything useful here?

That patches is merged near ad6dec402a6f993aa62cc7d14719c32e97911f93 commit, just from another source (canardpc forum, not github). Or you mean any particular patch?

I know you grabbed the last three. But I mean stuff by mcb30.

I don't think I noticed https://github.com/hadrava/memtest86plus/commit/2deedd22f1a9f889c0377094b02cf81b479ca778 or https://github.com/hadrava/memtest86plus/commit/29edf9c4d25889feab1db4c5d5c84a3af976a58e

But then I also don't know how much any of his PXE stuff matters for you. I mainly brought it up because I was looking for a version of memtest+ that wasn't so god damn broken, and found a couple repos with patches on top of 5.01 release.

Yours works fine for me, thank you for the repo.

Almost all mcb30 (not directly regarding PXE) patches are present too. https://github.com/hadrava/memtest86plus/commit/2deedd22f1a9f889c0377094b02cf81b479ca778 is ad6dec402a6f993aa62cc7d14719c32e97911f93

https://github.com/hadrava/memtest86plus/commit/29edf9c4d25889feab1db4c5d5c84a3af976a58e I think that code not "unused", I tested it before (when was adding mcb30 patches) and decided not to include it. But maybe I'm wrong.

I'm dont have much equipment to test PXE cases and patches, but you can fork and add patches as you wish, so I'll try to check them and merge.

There's also https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/memtest86plus.git/

p.s. PXE can simply be tested with a VM
