FAT filesystem

I wish I had the time to do it.... perhaps if I manage to hire another
programmer.....  At any rate, would it not be simplest to make changes to the
"in memory file system"( IMFS ) that comes with RTEMS?  This buys you POSIX
compliance, and is immediately integrated with RTEMS.  It should already be
thread-safe, although I am not sure....

Am I way off base?
