Putting an entry in the grub menu just gives you an easy way to launch memtest. Remember, memtest has to be run by itself - think of it as a limited operating system that only does one thing - test the memory system of your system. It can show errors in good RAM if you have other problems that cause memory errors. For example, it may show errors if you have the BIOS set wrong for your memory, even though the memory itself is fine.
