Yes, it would be nice for the user to not have to bother with forcepae to run computers with Pentium M and Celeron M CPUs. But I think this is a great improvement. Forcepae (used according to Colin Watson's advice in post #8) makes it much easier to use Ubuntu flavours in version 14.04 LTS compare

I'm not sure if a software fix is appropriate here. Should the ubiquity installer do a special check to see if it's been s tarted with forcepae and copy that option to the install regardless of what side of the '--' the user put it on? If not, then this really isn't a bug per se, as better documen

Comment to #11 : Actually the system works with or without the forcepae at boot arguments. When option is removed from /etc/grup/default (and grub updated), everything still works, but /proc/cpuinfo just does not show the pae over there. System bootet without forcepae option: foo@t42

so, the post-inst on the kernel checks to see that cpu does not have PAE and then bails the upgrade. However, it could check that even though cpu has no PAE support yet the currently running kernel does have PAE config option enabled and continue with the upgrade. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
