I currently use a Dell Latitude D500 laptop, equipped with a Pentium M processor. I was able to install 13.04 by creating a custom USB startup disk and following directions from http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/how- to-install-ubuntu-1204-on-non-pae.html and using newer non-PAE kernels from http://bazzar.launchpad.net/~webtom that matched 13.04. I should have created an ISO for everyone who didn't want to go through the process theirself, but hind-sight is always 20/20!
I was very surprised to come accross this thread and see how many other users were having to deal with this issue! This hardware is not trash yet, it actually runs Ubuntu 13.04 quite nicely, however I am planning on doing a downgrade and repurposing this machine as my daily user (which is how i ended up here, downloading Luiz's ISO), thanks Luiz! I am a programmer by profession and a Linux lover by heart. If there is anything I can do to help with this situation, I would be glad to. I'm sure that if a few of us team up and make a solid effort, we can get something done about this issue. Anyone else interested in getting this issue taken care of, please message me ASAP! -- 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 start Ubuntu 12.04 live CD with syslinux loader on Pentium M x86 Laptop due to bug in PAE kernel, initramfs or syslinux To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/930447/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
