J. Day" Cc: "Robert P. J. Day" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200904160009.53570.rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Impact: documentation update Robert noted that we don't actually document that lguest is 32-bit only, nor that PAE must be off (CONFIG_PAE is now prompted for if HIGHMEM is set to "off).
