Comment 25 for bug 897786

I've stumbled across the lack of a non-pae i386 kernel in quantal when I've tried to use an IBM Thinkpad T42 laptop as a thin client for quantal LTSP server.

Not being able to use that old laptop as a thin client would be a waste of hardware. That particular laptop is worn out but other users have the same model in good shape and it is otherwise capable of running quantal reasonably.

There must be other systems without pae which otherwise are quite useful to users today.

This is me complaining a little bit in the name of all those who still don't know that they will not be able to upgrade their systems to quantal.

Thanks and Blessings,
Shahar
