Hi,
I would like to create a large file (> 2^31 bytes).
The following simple test :
dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=4096k count=600
returns an error, regardless of the distribution (Mandrake 7.0, Redhat 6.2).
I don't know if I have to patch the kernel, the glibc or both of them.
Does anybody have an idea ?
Thanks.
Marc.
