Description
Port, board and/or hardware
ESP32-S3 N8R8
MicroPython version
MicroPython 6fee099ca-dirty on 2025-06-25; Generic ESP32S3 module with Octal-SPIRAM with ESP32S3
Compiled using
- IDF 5.4.1
- python 3.13.1
- gcc-15
- macOS Sequoia 15.5
mpremote is used directly from the micropython repository (but the results are same as with latest PyPI version)
Reproduction
- Have a local folder named
local - Run
mpremote mount local
Expected behaviour
Expected to mount local directory on the device and enter the REPL
Observed behaviour

SyntaxError: invalid syntaxAdditional Information
After some digging I found a recent thread #17465 which helped to resolve the issue.
After changing the size of a data chunk sent at once over REPL, mounting works as expected:
for i in range(0, len(command_bytes), 32):
self.serial.write(
command_bytes[i : min(i + 32, len(command_bytes))]
)
time.sleep(0.01)The mpremote mount command works with an earlier build I found on the internet (this one)
So I guess the real problem lies in some build flag.
