Hi,

So a cursory read of Wikipedia on this topic (ExFAT) and I stumbled across
this

Two experimental, unofficial solutions are available for DOS. The loadable
USBEXFAT driver requires Panasonic's USB stack for DOS and only works with
USB storage devices; the open-source EXFAT executable is an exFAT
filesystem reader, and requires the HX DOS
<https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=HX_DOS&action=edit&redlink=1>
extender
to work.[48] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT#cite_note-52> There are
no native exFAT real-mode DOS drivers, which would allow usage of, or
booting from exFAT volumes

Also Mac OS X 10.5 and later can read/write and repair exFAT, quite
possibly a solution there as well with minimal rewriting.
