[Bug 897786] Re: Kernel is dropping non-PAE flavour

[Erick Brunzell]

@ Stéphane and/or Colin,

I plan on doing some mini.iso testing in the near future, no help needed
there as I've used it before. I just need to answer some of my own
questions, such as whether "--no-install-recommends" is required when
installing the various desktop environments. I'll just try both with and
without, compare logs & results, etc.

My question is, in comment #9 Stéphane said, "I know some flavours of
Ubuntu chose to ship with non-PAE by default, using one of these
(probably xubuntu and lubuntu) would work too".

Based on that would it be improper to subscribe both lubuntu-dev and
xubuntu-dev to this bug report so we could get a definitive answer
regarding their decisions?

I personally have no effected hardware so my testing ability is limited,
but ATM it looks like upgrades from Oneiric w/non-pae to Precise remain
non-pae, and undoubtedly using the mini.iso will work, but I'd think
both of those options would require fast ethernet (no problem here).

It would just be nice to know for sure what Lubuntu and Xubuntu plan to
do ;^)
