[SOLVED]Porteus 32bit with PAE

Post#1 by Terus » 02 Jan 2014, 12:26

Trying to compile new kernel + PAE with old porteus config:

Code: Select all

modprobe configs && zcat /proc/config.gz > .config
and can't figure out with option i need to enable to get PAE.

Right now i don't see PAE in menuconfig also 64GB option is missing in High Mem Support.

Code: Select all

Processor type and features  --->
 High Memory Support  --->
  ( ) off
  (X) 4GB
Any ideas?

hi Terus,

you have to change 'Processor family' to i586 or i686 to be able to enable PAE support.
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.

Thanks, that was it.

Used this tutorial: http://www.porteus.org/tutorials/51-dev ... ernel.html

There is a problem running porteus Live CD in virtualbox (kernel panic). I'll post later in another topic.
