exFAT - Mac Windows and Linux

When there is the need to share a drive between a Mac and a Windows PC the natural choice is FAT32, but the fat32 is limited to maximum of  4 Gb for file. So easy alternative is exFAT. 

Apple added support for exFAT to Snow Leopard version 10.6.5.

ExFAT is available on Windows Vista with Service Pack and Windows 7 by default.
On Windows XP users can also install ExFAT with an optional download from Windows Update available where:

On Linux the support is limited.

It's manual mount. But you have to install exFAT Fuse from software update
and python-fuse, libmono-fuse-cil and gvfs-fuse.

Now in terminal
make a directory on media to mount the drive:
#su
password
# mkdir /media/pen

To see the partion name
# cat /proc/partitions
for example my is sdb1

then: 

# mount.exfat-fuse /dev/sdb1 /media/pen

now it will appear on desktop

to eject
# umount /mnt/pen
