CAUTION, beta release

This build is not ready for production yet, because it lacks some feedbacks from beta-testers.
despite this, i'd still like to see this merged as i have not found anyone for whom the current package works on bare metal

Motivation for this change

coreboot's v002 is broken for me, a significantly newer version than their master branch is available.

Things done

switched source from coreboot to memtest.org
(partially?) fixed checkPhase
set the description to the project's own
added myself as a maintainer as there currently isn't one set

  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
Notes
  • I'd love to see a nixos test for this :D

Sorry, something went wrong.

How is the current version broken? Testing it in a vm like this:

nix-build nixos --arg configuration '{ boot.loader.grub.memtest86.enable = true; }' -A vmWithBootLoader
./result/bin/run-nixos-vm

works for me.

coreboot's v002 spews an endless slew of errors, on both my thinkpad t410 and a friend's desktop
i'm fairly confident these are not real errors,
they go away when switching to the latest version from memtest.org or coreboot.org
and these devices otherwise worked fine, so it seems unlikely there's that many faults
@ajs124's VM test works for me though

Current memtest (memtest86plus: 5.0.1-coreboot-002) gives me also errors on 2 tested bare metal systems:

  • Thinkpad T540p
  • Supermicro X9DRi-F

I think we should wait until it is out of beta.

FWIW this works on my hardware where 5.0.1 freezes, thanks @evils!
