I tried Xubuntu, but had a problem.  The first problem was that it 
required pae in the kernel, but Pentium M doesn't have it.  So I found 
this web page...

http://www.webupd8.org/2012/11/how-to-install-ubuntu-1210-on-non-pae.html

...and used it to fix up my bootable USB stick.  Then I tried again.  This 
time it did not have a problem with pae, and it started showing the Ubuntu 
splash screen.  I thought I was in the clear, but then it stopped, went to 
text mode, showed busybox and said "unable to find a medium containing a 
live file system".

Now what?

I really wish [XL]Ubuntu hadn't forced us to have pae.  That's annoying. 
If they could have detected that and gone with the appropriate kernel, 
that would have been a lot better.
