Hi Jiri, sorry for taking long to answer you, I am reviewing the
overcommit test.

About your question, I'd combine your approach of picking if host is
32/64 bit from the image name with looking on /cat/cpuinfo for PAE
support.

Let's go with this approach for the final version of the test, OK?

Thanks and congrats for the test, it's a great piece of work! More
comments soon,
