Bug#282530: grub: add support for memtest86+ to new memtest86 option

[Kiko Piris]

Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-11
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch


If user selects the memtest86 option in his menu.lst, and memtest86+ is
installed, then also add a kernel with this one.

This can be easily done with this patch:
