Hello ubuntu-doc

Re. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE

I'm writing to report an apparent error in the instructions to force PAE
during Ubuntu install on an IBM X40 Pentium-M.

The Wiki says start by pressing F6 at the install menu to bring up a given
list of further options. This does not work because it misses out the first
step.

The first step - on my install at least - was to press <TAB> before the
install menu appears (when the keyboard and man icon appear when the
install disk starts booting).

The workaround is given correctly here:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/117744/how-can-i-install-on-a-non-pae-cpu-error-kernel-requires-features-not-present/117751#117751

I was unable to add this comment to the wiki because I could not log in to
UbuntuOne.
