The problem was mine. I didn't upgrade glibc to handle
the large files. As soon as I did, the fileutils 4.1
worked. Cancel the problem, please.
_____________Text of previous Message____________________
Anyway I am using a slackware 7.1 linux distribution
with a 2.4 kernel. The reason for this is that we need large
partitions for a database, and the 2.4 kernels remove the
2gig filesystem limitation. I was uncompressing a file
that was a little under a gig when it disappeared. It did
uncompress and I know it is there because of the used space
I get with df. The error message with ls is
"/bin/ls:nt: Value too large for defined data type."
At that point I upgraded to binutils 4.1 and got a similar
message.
Now has anyone fixed this so that one can see large
files with ls?
