To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: ls Reply-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 17 May 2001 13:48:53 -0400 From: Carolyn Beckman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 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? _________________________________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Carolyn Beckman ------------------------------------------------------------------ ================================================================= [EMAIL PROTECTED] Carolyn Beckman ================================================================= _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
