Comment 299 for bug 930447

Hi Luis,

Now that I have got into it I might do this if I feel the need to upgrade to the latest & greatest version - so, thanks for the howto.

Unfortunately I am afraid that many disenfranchised Win XP users will not fiddle around like this (or even read this thread to find how to).

It's a pity because, once I got past the pae issue I found something far more mature and developed than I ever suspected.

I know there is probably some good reason but it would be nice if the next version could automatically add the 'forcepae' if it found the appropriate conditions to do so.

>@l-colin,

>14.04 works flawlessly in Celeron/Pentium M processor systems. You just need to add forcepae do the kernel command line (at boot)
>On a livecd, press anykey as soon as it loads (the first purple screen). Use the F6 option to add the forcepae. You'll have something like:

> "...initrd.lz quiet splash -- forcepae"
