The 2GB filesize limit was due to glibc and the linux kernel, not the ext2 filesystem. Any linux distro from the past year or so should be able to handle >2GB files on any filesystem. Hardware raid is invisible to Linux, so won't affect the maximum usable filesize. --Pete -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
