Hmm... if it truly can't be mounted, then the system can't read

no difference.

Hmm... isn't "the standard 32 bit kernel" `linux-image-686-pae` ?
At least the `linux-image-686` package seems to describe itself as for use
only on those machines where `linux-image-686-pae` doesn't work.

That's good advice: check whether your machine has the RAM soldered on

SODIMMs to replace the likely pair of 512KB SODIMMs you have.
