I want to get a look at Cents-6 The computer is a portable Thinkpad T-42 The base OS is Windows XP Professionnal I tried to use both Microsoft Virtual PC and Oracle Virtual Box with the same result I boot from the CD (wich have been burned from an ISO downloaded from a Centos -6 repo). The version is CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD.iso With each virtual machine I get this result at the beginning of the installation: "This kernel requires the following features not present on the cpu pae" "Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU" I undeerstand that perhaps the computer processor is too old. But is there a patch to overpass this problem? --- Michel Donais -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

A typical 14.1-inch (360 mm) T4x weighs 4.9 lb (2.2 kg), slightly less than the 600-series, and features an Intel Pentium M Processor (ranging from the Intel Pentium M at 1.73 GHz to the Intel Pentium M 770 at 2.13 GHz), Hope that helps. -- With best regards, Paul.

Otherwise, the only other option will be qemu which is slow.
