What a decision to make, leaving older but fine and working hardware out of acceptable simple install options - couldn't it had waited until pre- precise releases ?.
Unfortunately I've only first become hit by this after the release, as I've been using (testing) Precise on this hardware type (non-PAE capable Intel) since before the beta1 releases and just been upgrading without noticing this change. This leaves me with a several boxes, for which I had decided that Kubuntu Precise should be the final upgrade, while it works like an absolutely charm (best compared to several previous releases including Lucid) and would become an LTS. Sorry for the late comment, but I had to make a statement - just in hope of a simpler CD/USB ISO install option would come around as more people now probably gets hit by this decision, when trying to install the final Precise release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/930447 Title: Unable to Install Ubuntu 12.04 on Pentium M x86 Laptop due to PAE kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/930447/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
