[opensuse-kernel] No PAE support in 13.1 live images?
I noticed that the package lists for Live KDE and Live GNOME 32-bit images include kernel-default, instead of kernel-desktop[1], as the 64-bit images do. I checked the kernel configs[2] to see what the specific differences were, and noted that the 32-bit kernel-default *does not* include PAE, but the 32-bit kernel-desktop does. So, in effect, the 32-bit Live images *do not* have PAE support! Is there a valid reason why we're using kernel-default instead of kernel-desktop in the 32-bit Live images, or is this a packaging bug?

Not all systems support PAE and at least when this was decided, kernel-desktop would not boot without PAE. This is also what yast does btw if you install on such a system.
