description |
I recently downloaded and built a live usb of the latest 12.04 daily build iso for i386 hardware using the following link address: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/precise-desktop-i386.iso. I was not able to boot from the live usb due to the incompatibility of the linux kernel on the 12.04 iso and my Pentium M laptop hardware.
The error message I received is as follows: "This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: pae. Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for you CPU." I expected that I would be able to install Ubuntu 12.04 on my IBM Thinkpad T42 laptop that has a Pentium M processor, 1700Mhz processor. The root cause of the issue appears to be that the default kernel bundled in the current daily build i386 iso is the generic-pae kernel. It's my understanding that the generic-pae kernel cannot be installed on cpu hardware that does not support pae.
I have been using Ubuntu since 10.10. I have been able to install 10.10, 11.04, and 11.10 on my Thinkpad without issue. My understanding of the December Tech Board kernel meeting is that the non-pae kernel will be supported until 12.10. If that's the case, there should be a version of the Ubuntu 12.04 iso available for download that can be loaded on non-pae hardware. |

I recently downloaded and built a live usb of the latest 12.04 daily build iso for i386 hardware using the following link address: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/precise-desktop-i386.iso. I was not able to boot from the live usb due to the incompatibility of the linux kernel on the 12.04 iso and my Pentium M laptop hardware.
The error message I received is as follows: "This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: pae. Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for you CPU." I expected that I would be able to install Ubuntu 12.04 on my IBM Thinkpad T42 laptop that has a Pentium M processor, 1700Mhz processor. The root cause of the issue appears to be that the default kernel bundled in the current daily build i386 iso is the generic-pae kernel. It's my understanding that the generic-pae kernel cannot be installed on cpu hardware that does not support pae.
I have been using Ubuntu since 10.10. I have been able to install 10.10, 11.04, and 11.10 on my Thinkpad without issue. My understanding of the December Tech Board kernel meeting is that the non-pae kernel will be supported until 12.10. If that's the case, there should be a version of the Ubuntu 12.04 iso available for download that can be loaded on non-pae hardware.

Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't start from Desktop CD or USB with syslinux boot loader on Pentium M 1.6Ghz or faster Pentium M CPU - displays error message about missing PAE feature in CPU, but *the same* *Ubuntu 12.04* Desktop CD/LiveUSB starts fine on *the same CPU* (and same PAE kernel) if GRUB boot loader is used, for example when WUBI or LiveUSB with GRUB boot loader, like Multisystem (http://liveusb.info/dotclear/index.php?pages/install ) is used!
The error message is:
"This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: pae.
Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for you CPU."
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT REGRESSION! People are able to install and successfully use Ubuntu 12.04 on such pretty new hardware, like IBM Thinkpad T42 laptop with Pentium M 1700Mhz processor, but the bug in syslinux (or something related) forbids Ubuntu 12.04 installation.
This bug is reproducible on lots of computers, there are several log files and /proc/cpuinfo file attached to this bugreport, AFAIK it's enough to reopen this bug.
My understanding of the December Tech Board kernel meeting is that the non-pae kernel will be supported until 12.10.
