I have a couple of questions about your Sony Vaio with Pentium M:
What happens when you try to boot a PAE kernel with forcepae? Do you get
an error message? Black screen?
Are you sure it is not 'only' a problem with some other hardware,
The vast majority of Pentium M and Celeron M CPUs are suitable for
fakepae or forcepae and can work with PAE kernels. But some of these
processors need a non-pae kernel.
We found a Pentium M 1.70 GHz which does not work with forcepae. It
gives the following output from
cpuid|grep ^0001
