I don't know why suddenly 11B3 decided that I need the "-pae" kernel rather than the usual "-default" as in past SuSEs/openSUSEs.)
Basil, I don't know why either, but I did 3 11.0b3 installs in recent days, and all of them got the pae instead, even though all were 32 bit installs and had 1G or less of installed RAM. At least I was able to boot those pae
Yeah, we're thinking about renaming kernel-default to kernel-usually-works-on-most-hardware and kernel-pae to kernel-the-one-you-really-want to avoid this confusion in the future.
I don't get it. Why is kernel-the-one-you-really-want wanted on systems with 1G or less of installed RAM? What besides ability to address non-existent RAM
4G is different about pae kernels? -- ". . . . in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you . . . ." Matthew 7:12 NIV
