guess it will become a FAQ or a basic PXElinux setup/howto..
getting Syslinux + Memtest working
actually there is the FAQ already..saying .BIN is reserved and you need to give memtest thus another name.
rename memtest.bin to memtest (no .bin or other extension)
then have your configuration file (*.cfg):
label mt86
kernel memtest
Memtest+ also runs fine for me from Syslinux.
you can even get a DOS executable version (UPX-compressed) from:
http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/soft/specials/memteste.zip
(a loader program was developed in order to combine DOS with Memtest and thus not needing 2 diskettes, as the 88KB memtest takes an entire diskette for itself because of the formatting)
