Hi,

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.

Jack Trice has a Pentium M 1.70 GHz which does not work with forcepae.
It gives the following output from

cpuid|grep ^00000001

Pentium M 1.70 GHz  00000001 000006d6 00000816 00000180 afe9fbbf

So I have updated the wiki page

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu-fake-PAE

See the details at

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu-fake-PAE#Test

Now I think there is even more reason to continue the work with a
non-pae kernel for Lubuntu and ToriOS. See this link

Nio
