Yes, the PAE kernel runs fine on BlueOnyx. Just install it as Robert said. 

Afterwards check /boot/grub/grub.conf 

In it you will find a line that starts with "default=" followed by a number. 
That number there defines which kernel is uses by default on startup. 

PLEASE NOTE: The counting starts with zero, so if the 1st kernel is the 
default kernel then the number should be 0 and your line should read:

default=0

Further below you find all the kernels that are installed on your system. 

Check which one is the PAE kernel. If the PAE kernel is the 2nd kernel, then 
change the "default=" line to this:

default=1

Then reboot the box and it should boot with the PAE kernel by default.
