I have to run Memtest86 on a couple of machines, just to make sure there are no bad chips; and if there are, I can isolate them using badram. Right now I'm running it on my LFS desktop, and output is being dumped to /dev/ttyS0 with no way to interrupt it. As a result, I missed a single error in the first test. As with most anything, I always believe there is a better way to do something than however it's currently being done; does anyone know a good way to obtain the capability to review Memtest86's output? The only other way I can think to do this is to connect my laptop to the serial port, and have Minicom connect across the line to the other machine. However, I currently lack a null modem cable. Am I pretty much SOL as far as that goes, or did I miss something? Thanks for any input. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iQIVAwUBRhWeAKe2pgKIdGq4AQpROg//S/l03+fHvRjmN72cY6m/imW29Qq1gzIm P+tBPEvpJ5fU48bLGPmu3bPg6XQzxTWDTGxmfdv+I922AgvKj8KQtIvbyKFk9ujF aLRIWURFGKMBuCVjUC0I31l5An+ek0vIkplu72dRjfYWPrRv44tfyNwSAR8V7TdE WwBJxf5VdBbpHq/0xPA14om2R7rFZTJPeFCbC/73PZ4fb3ayPSL1WLizhtTNKrpL ljxsdECqdcERN1HI0ST5v1bdYpoiCb+jeHGg6JlFVhFPaHpVN95uxi8WwVm1AX5q PI1u7+t472uTGBZOmI1yqo5LA/hp0vzH+n5Blvw916LkawGeFLmScKakt/S2lH7j 6Epi/9bLG51Jne5gnCFX6Lpp+h6QU1GembJwSKHa9wmtJHYvhLA+VVuYW0AMPs4w 2tCJ9hMQFV84yoofdiYQOdJXa2VQhjCPKqNoiJWvhPP6OkrdQP8PEs814wVHl4/T RNYRkNZXHDkyhC2hm3QlOAXu1l8UYyrzDDiWgbkTcWs+IpnmIi+a+FBEWXPRfYF6 KUemiNfsclGFbgxg2P0c5NaxrSjZMpP3CTXMAu0ztF4QQIPpMW2xAENtjczzO11s NnRBhhNVObn4B/1m5n+1JsggQ8ES+wGChLPNd+YAPDobmH7ipeXNPZSsK/96IGb9 dwem+U6QRVw= =98rq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
