Unpatched kernel boot with the memory test enabled when NUMA and interleave options enabled -- I am already reported this. patched kernel with the memory test enabled boot too. i.e. memory test enabled allow boot in any situation. > Could you enable the options, power down the machine for 10-20 minutes, > and try to boot ?
