I just got a used BeagleBone A5 and one of the features is that part of the SD card is visible to the computer it is plugged in to as a flash drive.

How is this done?

Is there something running in the Linux that services the I/O requests?

Are there limitation?

If I mount an NFS share could that be served to the host computer as thought it were also part of the USB flash drive?

I find this very interesting. Where can I learn more about this?
