+README.SLACKWARE for memtest86
+
+The memtest86 package installs a bootable image to /boot/memtest.bin
+which is similar to the kernel images in the same directory.
+
+
+LILO users: Append this to your /etc/lilo.conf:
+
+ image = /boot/memtest.bin
+ label = memtest86
+
+Then run /sbin/lilo to update the boot loader.
+Don't forget to re-run /sbin/lilo if you upgrade this package.
+
+
+GRUB users: Add something like this to your /boot/grub/menu.lst:
+
+ title Memtest86
+ kernel (hd0,0)/memtest.bin
+
+
+See /usr/doc/memtest-$VERSION/README for more info.
