I find sshfs (ssh fuse filesystem) works really well when I want to
mount the FR's file-system to a mount point.  Still, this makes the
assumption that it's on Linux ...

e.g.
to mount:
$ sshfs moko:/ mount-point
or:
$ sshfs root at 192.168.0.202:/ mount-point

to umount:
$ fusermount -u mount-point

(assumes  ~/.ssh/config is set with Host moko,  Hostname and User as root.)

Not sure if this helps!
