Additional BlueCat Extensions

Small Configurations: Some features can be removed from the
base kernel through the BlueCat Configurator

Headless Operation: BlueCat can boot and operate successfully
without a keyboard, mouse, or monitor attached

Network Install: BlueCat can be installed and booted in a embedded
target via the network

Flash File System: BlueCat can be configured and installed on a
flash card, thereafter, allowing the system to boot from Flash and
optionally mounting other local or remote file systems

Backplane Communications: BlueCat supports communication
over the chassis backplane, cPCI or VME. This will allow boards to
boot over the backplane and to communicate using higher level
protocols (FORCE 735/736)
