My only thought is that you may have the wrong DVD, since I just did an
install on a laptop with a decade-old Pentium-M CPU. I worked, I can't
complain, I believe the video driver even produced an image under
GNOME3, although I went with LXDE instead so I can easily put stuff I
use all the time on the tool bar.
I got it from here:

The images I copied from the F16 DVD iso are also on .../boot.iso .

Another thing you might try is the "Live-CD" install if the object

remember if the P4 has PAE or not, do know that about yours before
trying the install.
Yes, it does.
However, earlier P4s didnʼt have NX/XD, and unless you have more than
2GB of memory in the system, youʼd probably be slightly better off with
a non-PAE kernel on those systems. But thereʼs not much in it.
My machine has 4 GB.
I got in March 2006. NX for pentium 4s were available in 2004.
That said, how do I find out for sure whether my pentium has NX?
