Fixed code formatting in →Memtest86 and Memtest86+
For Fedora Core, memtest86+ is available:
<ttpre>yum install memtest86+</ttpre>
For Gentoo, both programs are available:
<ttpre>emerge memtest86</tt><tt>emerge memtest86+</ttpre>
To test your system for faulty RAM, install either memtest and reboot into it. Run it for at least a few hours (at least 2-3 iterations). If there will be even a single error reported, you have to change your RAM chips (or, if your system is overclocked, downclock it to normal speed).
