kernel-nonpae works, or kernel-legacy would too. We might even want to investigate backing down the CPU optimizations on that kernel to be baseline i586 if we call it that.
kernel-legacy sounds good, and non "threatening" to those users who aren't running machines that are 2 years old or newer :)
I bet there's at least someone out there who will manage to mix up nvidia-legacy-gfx with kernel-legacy...
Grepping over our buildsystem shows 700 PAE enabled machines and 14 that are not. So I guess "kernel-legacy" is a good call.
So how many non-Novells actually use bigsmp over default?
Good question.
