[SOLVED]Porteus 32bit with PAE

[Terus]

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.

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.
