Redhat 7.0...

    I was attempting to tar/gzip a rather large directory and stumbled upon a 
(probably) well known 2GB limit.  The system is running ext2 all around and it appears 
I can't go beyond this limit.  Does anyone have any suggestions to overcome this?  
I've got to be able to tar/gzip this directory for archiving purposes.

    Would converting the drive to ext3 help?  Does RH7.0 even support ext3?  Am I 
better off upgrading the OS to RH7.2, use a journaling volume and go from there?
