Yes, there is more work in general to make this fully working. Atleast this give people a starting point. It looks like we should be able to test this with Qemu since it takes a physical sector size as an argument. Hopefully makefs can learn to do FAT32 and avoid these issues. Bruce's comments are good and I'll take a look his suggested changes. Right now I'm trying to figure out why UEFI PXE is hanging after the first file is looked up on some machines.
