If you had these, you'd have PAE kernels: kernel-PAE.i686 : The Linux kernel compiled for PAE capable machines. kernel-PAE-devel.i686 : Development package for building kernel modules to match the PAE kernel. > kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-194.11.1.el5 > kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 > kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5 These are just headers and shouldn't do any harm.
