<div>Thank you, Norman.<br/>
<br/>
I was indeed using the ffat library which was itself making the requests for a block connection.<br/>
I'll change that to using the ffat filesystem server in libports when I get a few minutes.<br/>

<br/>
there are two ways of using the ffat file system: linking the ffat
<br/>
library (libports/src/lib/ffat), or starting the ffat server
<br/>
(libports/src/server/ffat_fs) and letting your client open a File_system
<br/>
session to the server. The latter can be done by configuring the VFS of
<br/>
your client as follows:
<br/>
<br/>
<vfs> <fs/> </vfs>
<br/>
<br/>
Apparently Bob has used the library, which requests a Block session
<br/>
directly. Using ffat_fs should do the trick.
<br/>
