non-PAE enabled laptop build

[martialhax]

Ack.....I have an old Thinkpad R51 that has been running BT5R3 great and now I'm dead in the water with the PAE capable requirement.

I looked over the "Live Build a Custom Kali ISO" and "Debian Live Manual", but can't figure out where in the process and in what config file to specify a 486 trunk build
or at least something i386 non-PAE. Seems like only one other person has asked this question unless it is just so easy.

Only advice I saw which is not helping me:

I am totally new to Debian and live-build so I apologize for my newbiness....additional tips appreciated.


Thanks.

hi

have a look at this

http://docs.kali.org/live-build/live-build-a-custom-kali-iso . scroll down untill you get to "Building Kali Linux for older i386 architecture

"

hope it helps ;)

Thanks!.....I ended up creating a custom ISO with the instructions that works great.
Since then I've done a dual boot Acer Aspire One netbook with Windows 8 and Kali as well....
not super fast but adequate with 1 GB RAM.
