Stephen,

The work done in this bug should stop 12.04 systems getting hosed when
updating to 14.04.

The work done in bug #930447 enables Pentium M systems to boot a PAE
kernel with the forcepae parameter (this has to be manually enabled by
the user). Hopefully this means the 14.04 release image will boot on
Pentium M systems.

In your case (I assume you have Pentium M) you can install fakepae and
then install the enablement stack and stay on 12.04 or (once 14.04 is
released) follow the instructions in the wiki to upgrade to 14.04.
