It's a different beast. It has 32Mb flash and 128mb RAM. That's the total of 
its storage. The idea is probably that it comes with a bunch of configuration 
stuff to do things like netboot or whatever, but you're able to replace that 
if you know how. You don't need a new kernel in something like that, you're 
not going to be putting new devices into it for one thing.
