if you don't have that much memory, i can't think of a downside to pae
over against regular 386.

also, since pae is only 18 years old, we can assert that you probablly
don't have a #9 video card in it or other such old stuff.  i have nothing
against the old stuff, but there has to be a way to clean out the closets. :-)

libaml -> acpi interpreter  (from cinap)
libfis -> sata/sas fis/frame en/decoding.  (new)
