You must be running Linux 2.4 and have a glibc that supports large file operations. I'm pretty sure that some programs are still able to write to large files, even if the C library doesn't support it (tar and dd, for example). A question for the Sistina folks: do the patches that make large file operations possible in Linux 2.2 work for all filesystems, or just GFS? -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ It's been a business / \/ \(_)| ' // ._\ / - \(_)/ ./| ' /(__ doing pleasure with you. \_||_/|_||_|_\\___/ \_-_/|_|\__\|_|_\ __) [ Mike Hicks | http://umn.edu/~hick0088/ | mailto:hick0088 at tc.umn.edu ] -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
