In a laptop of 64 bits with Windows 7 as host with VirtualBox 6.1.40 installed, was created a Virtual Machine for the latest Peppermint OS available at Choosing and Downloading a Disk Image. I got the PeppermintOS-i386.iso file and the Virtual Machine is based on Debian 32 bits with 2GB of ram.

When the .iso file is booted, appears the welcome screen with:

PeppermintOS - Live

PeppermintOS (686-pae)
PeppermintOS with Localisation support >
Utilities                              >
Recovery Options                       >

Is selected the PeppermintOS (686-pae) option and appears a new screen with the following message:

This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU:
pae
Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU.

The goal is get some experience with Peppermint 32 bits to be installed really in other old laptop based on 32 bits.

How fix this situation? I am assuming some setting should be applied for VirtualBox in some place.
