Behind the scenes, when you select lxde-desktop, it is using the lxde
cnofiguration found at live-images.git (see http://live.debian.net/ and
browse the git repo to see all options used in that configuration).
Unfortunately, the 'build' file doesn't show you those options, but it
includes linux-headers in the --linux-packages option. That is an option
that the live-build-cgi interface does not expose to users, so there is
no way for the user to disable it. However, switching to 686-pae should
solve the problem.

Check the capabilities of your processor. Most of these are OK, but some
may lack PAE. For processors lacking PAE you will need the 486 flavour.

live-build should default to --linux-flavours "486 686-pae" for i386
architecture. However, it looks like that is not an option through
live-build-cgi. That would give you the maximum flexibility (although at
the cost of a slightly larger image size). If you really need to support
such old systems, then select 486 (at the cost of slightly less
performance on more recent systems).

Richard, this message highlights multiple limitations of the cgi
interface that we ought to address. Your thoughts?
