Description

Memtest86 - A Stand-alone Memory Diagnostic

MemTest86 is the original, free, stand alone memory testing software for x86 computers. MemTest86 boots from a USB flash drive and tests the RAM in your computer for faults using a series of comprehensive algorithms and test patterns.

Install

As a binary package — by origin, or by package name:

pkg install sysutils/memtest86
pkg install memtest86

From the ports tree:

cd /usr/ports/sysutils/memtest86/ && make install clean

To depend on this port in another port's Makefile:

RUN_DEPENDS=	memtest86>0:sysutils/memtest86
