Well,
the easiest way to install Ubuntu 12.04 non-pae is through another Ubuntu Official flavor that supports non-pae .
Lubuntu 12.04 supports non-pae processors and Xubuntu 12.04 as well.
This thread in Ubuntu-Forums.org will illuminate you about what happen

I would prefer the Lubuntu and I would stuck with it , as a very light (low-resources) desktop environment but you can do anything you want :-)
I assume the PC is old one , because all of moderns PCs supports the PAE feature. So maybe Unity is a bit heavy (?)
If you want to install Unity .. just apply this command in terminal (lxterminal), after you make all updates
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
and unity should be there.
Have a good Install !
Thanks

Of course if you want the 12.10 version , you can upgrade through 12.04 . But think about this twice , because 12.10 considered as heaviest that 12.04.
Thanks

If your computer is old enough that it can't support PAE then running Ubuntu 12.10 even with a non-pae kernel you probably would find it too slow to use comfortably.
I would recommend Lubuntu 12.04, Lubuntu 12.10 has PAE kernel so wont work. However 12.04 was non PAE.
