[Bug 1422675] [NEW] No installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources

 

Public bug reported:

I tried to install from the Ubuntu Vivid 32-bit mini.iso into a computer
with Pentium M

http://www.cnet.com/laptops/lenovo-
thinkpad-t42-2373/4507-3121_7-31155666.html

and booted the installer with the forcepae boot option. This made the
installer start and work until it should get the kernel. Then it stopped
with the following message

"No installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources ... Continue
the installation without installing a kernel?"

I checked if this is a PAE issue ... and yes, it is.

Forcepae makes the installer work, but later on, during installation, it
refuses to manage the [PAE] kernel. I tested, and it works in a computer
with CPU with a built-in PAE flag. And the trusty mini.iso can install
in the same computer with Pentium M, so this is a regression.

At 'ctrl+alt+F4' it complains that the kernels found are not usable on
486. But forcepae should allow it. And the same kernels work when
installed with the corresponding daily Lubuntu Vivid desktop iso file.

-o-

This bug is reported from another computer, because I don't know how to
report it from the mini.iso system. So you should disregard the
collected data, that I might not be able to remove.
