@Luiz:
The headers are in the linux-headers-generic-pae package and should be replaced 
with linux-headers-generic package. Not sure why they are needed at all though, 
but I assume there is a good reason or they wouldn't have been there.

I didn't do the uncompress/recompress of initrd. I wonder if that's why
your image is smaller than mine.

Somebody claimed that non-pae was faster or more power saving than pae
on computers that can run both (and have less than 4 GB of RAM). From
what I've seen, it's the contrary: using pae when available is
insignificantly faster or no difference for most workloads, but I don't
think there have been enough testing across different hardware (e g non-
intel processors) to give a serious verdict either way.

And a final note. I said that whether to completely drop the non-pae kernel for 
12.10 was to be decided at UDS next week. It looks like it's already a done 
deal to do so, judging from this email:
