Hi all,
I have a 250 GB USB external HDD with FAT32 partition. I wanted to
copy the isos of GNU/Linux distros onto it, but when the size of the
file is > 4GB, I get an error message saying "file size too large".
When I googled regarding this, I got a lot of links pointing me to
'ulimit' command but I don't see any issue with that. Here is what I
get when I do a ulimit -a:
<snip>
core file size (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority (-e) 20
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals (-i) 16382
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 64
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 1024
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200
real-time priority (-r) 0
stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) unlimited
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited
</snip>
Iirc, I remember a similar question being already asked here, but
couldn't find the relevant thread now, hence this question. How to
overcome this problem?
Thank you.
