Dear all,

I'm playing around with a project that is going to use a virtual machine 
to run the jobs.
One of the application version files is the virtual disk image. This 
file is 2.8 G.

When I try to run a job I get the following error in my BOINC client:

| Finished download of root_0.9_windows_intelx86_lib_gbac-cernvm-x86.vdi
| [error] File root_0.9_windows_intelx86_lib_gbac-cernvm-x86.vdi has 
wrong size: expected 2994774016, got -1300193280
| [error] Checksum or signature error for 
root_0.9_windows_intelx86_lib_gbac-cernvm-x86.vdi

If I check the file on disk it is the correct size, and the numbers fit 
with a 32-bit signed/unsigned integer mixup.

Is it on purpose that files bigger that 2 G are not supported or is it a 
signed vs unsigned mistake in the client?

Cheers,
Christian
