Thanks.

For *ubuntu, I modified:

./ubuntu-installer/i386/linux
./ubuntu-installer/i386/boot-screens/txt.cfg

to include "forcepae" and could see the change in the menu items in the
Installer Boot Screen.  What finally worked was to use the Advanced
options -> Command-line expert install.  Somehow that got the right
kernel.

I'll look more at the other distros, too, but my initial run-in with
Puppy is that it does not have a generic netboot installer.  It looks
like one must first install puppy on real hardware.  I tried in a VM
first but it could not get past the graphics.

But for the most part things are solved unless the wiki needs tweaking.
