Server kernel is configured with PAE support (i.e. > 4GB support). Not all CPU's support this (Mostly laptops that don't...)
Just about nobody needs it anyway, even on a "server", it makes things slower if you don't need > 4GB of ram (And anyone with > 4GB should get a 64-bit platform anyway ;) ) In any case, the installer should check for support for this bit (/proc/cpuinfo ;) ) and install a non-PAE kernel by default if it isn't supported. Preferably leave PAE for -bigiron where someone might actually need it ;) -- Ubuntu Server LAMP 6.06 in VMWare on WinXP hangs after installation https://launchpad.net/bugs/48284 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
