Maybe, depending upon your kernel version, and if 2.2.x, whether you've installed the appropriate patches.

[SLUG] LARGE files...
Greetings, My brain may have stopped, but is there a way to create files under Linux (on a 32 bit platform) greater than 2Gb? If I were to take a dd of /dev/hda1 and dump it to a file to mount later via loopback and the /dev/hda1 slice is larger than 2Gb.. what does one do?
