What kernel are you running?  Older kernels (2.4.xx and
earlier?) had this limitation, but I would have guessed that the
default kernel for Red Hat 9.1 would have been a 2.6 kernel.

Also, what filesystem are you running on the XP box?  XP defaults
to ntfs, but if you are using vfat, it has the 2GB limit as well.
