I was trying to run this Red Hat memtest.sh script.
So I copied the linux.tar.gz (45Mb file) to /tmp directory.

Though when I try to run the script as user it keeps complaining:
mv: cannot stat `linux': No such file or directory
mv: cannot stat `linux': No such file or directory

What am I missing?
Since I possibly have a bad memory stick it would be good idea to put
this script to a test.
memtest86 did 17-passes on this memory and didn't detect any errors.

So, I borrowed two good memory sticks from my backup server, and the new
box is happy so far, compiled some kind of 27Mb lib-file without any
kernel panic.

I would like to run this Red-Hat memtest.sh script on these two stick,
but I'm missing something (I'm not that good in reading the scripts :-/
Can anybody have a pick at it and tell me what is it looking for?
