set qualifies it as an i686.

I can't think of any reason to use a PAE kernel on this system, so I'm
thinking of switching to the i586 kernel.  Can anyone see any
disadvantage to making the switch?


PAE kernel is required for NX bit support (but I'm not sure if your
CPU supports it anyway).

And that's a good reason to stay with PAE, assuming the CPU supports NX.
