Regarding the 2GB limit: current 2.3 kernels should be able to do more (even on 32 bit machines). In part it was also an intended limitation in order not to break the APIs (lseek() has to be able to do relative seeks from one end to the other). The API issues are resolved with current glibcs. Either use the 64 bit functions (open64, lseek64 etc.) or define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS to 64 then the standard open etc. calls will run in large file mode. -- Andreas E.
