The TechRecipe article is old. Some of the commands still apply, but it is a very custom solution.
Yes, there is a way to create a custom hybrid MBR to accommodate additional partitions.
1. This is a very fragile arrangement, and any Apple Software upgrade can break it.
2. Any Hybrid MBR changes require this process to be repeated every time it breaks, which you should be willing to undertake.
3. If you want to do this, and maintain it, please post the output of the following commands from OS X Terminal?
diskutil list
diskutil cs list
sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk0
sudo fdisk /dev/disk0
4. Sudo command require your password, which is not echoed back to you. You may also see a warning about improper use of sudo and potential data loss.
5. Can you describe what exactly are you trying to establish?
6. You previous attempt with exFAT failed, because your Mac requires a Hybrid MBR which maps the GPT to a MBR using a one-to-one mapping.
7. If you just want to run OS X and Windows, and do not want to run any custom disk partitions, you should use Bootcamp Assistant. If it is failing, it can be addressed.
