Colin, I just realized that I created some confusion. I was trying the non-pae mini.iso when I posted earlier.
I'll deal with errors regarding it separately after doing some research, and taking into account that I'm testing a daily image. I have since learned that Lubuntu will NOT rebuild with the non-pae kernel. I convinced BubbaJ to file bug 930447. I hope he'll take time to provide a hardware profile. So, AFAIK there are two options for installing Precise on hardware that will not support pae: (1) Upgrade from Oneiric (although I notice some bits of pae being pulled into installed packages). (2) Use the non-pae mini.iso (or CLI from the alternate image) but that can be problematic. Both of those options require fast internet so I'm not sure we're living up to our promise to support non-pae throughout the Precise life cycle. Since all of my hardware works fine with the pae kernel I can't do much kernel related testing on my end, but I can certainly test installation procedures. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897786 Title: Kernel is dropping non-PAE flavour To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/897786/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
