i love it. we have complaining that fat doesn't do more
than 8.3 and trolling that there's a patent liability for
doing more than 8.3 within 24 hrs.
just to be clear. fat itself is not patented. just some
particular aspects of a 8.3 workaround.

dossrv and 9load both read fat32.

i think that's the point of using fat. no tools required.
you're already in a pickle if you've gotten to this point.
