OK, it seems that since VB 1.6 it is possible in the advanced option to set the PAE/NX support. When checked, it is possible to boot Ubuntu server.

Hi, I just run into the same problem while rebooting a fresh install of 8.04 LTS i386 on VMWare Server 1.0.4. This is not only a "me too", but as there seems to be a lot of activity in https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/23343 and https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/31405 but no response or action here, I'm asking to re-evaluate this report. I think, that debian-installer should be fixed, either by installing 1 fitting kernel or 2 kernels (optimised and safe). Additionaly there is no hint during the installation, that a special kind of hardware is required!

> It's not a bug in the server kernel that the hw doesn't support PAE. One could say it is a bug in the installer, because it boots -386 kernel, and installs -server kernel, which cannot always be expected to work. So shouldn’t this be reassigned to debian-installer instead of being marked invalid? VirtualBox will get PAE in one of their subsequent releases (note: Gutsy’s virtualbox-ose is also affected, so maybe this should be opened against it as well), but other PAE-less systems still won’t be able to boot the server kernel. -- PANIC: CPU too old for this kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151942 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The current workaround for this: 1. Boot the server from the CD, choose to ‘Rescue a broken system’. 2. Get a shell in your installed system. 3. If /boot contains the generic kernel, then it’s the CD’s /boot; unmount it and mount it to get your server’s /boot in there. 4. aptitude install linux-generic 5.

Correction: it is a Dell Latitude D600. After searching around, it seems like this problem has something to do with PAE support compiled into the server kernel. I was able to install a working kernel by booting from the server install CD, launching a recovery shell, and running apt-get install linux-generic When booting, press ESC to enter the GRUB boot menu and select the -generic kernel (probably the third one in the list). (Even better, you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and make this the default kernel.) This is the easy way out.
