Today I was introduced to the g4u product. I tried out version 2.1 by creating an image of a 40Gb Dell Optiplex SX270 drive to a Windows FTP Server running on a Windows XP PC.
When I tried to slurp the image from the FTP server to a hard disk on a similar SX270 using the slurpdisk command below slurpdisk [EMAIL PROTECTED] diskimage.gz the slurpdisk connected to the ftp server and then ended with the message below "553 Cannot send file larger than 4 gigabytes" I actually created the image using g4u 1.7 but when I received the message tried to slurp using the g4u 2.1. It however gave the same message In my case the image size was more than 5 Gb in size. I checked the message archives to see if anyone had seen a problem like this before but there does not seem to have been any resolution to the issue. The problems seems to be a bug in gzip 1.24 for which there is an available patch from gzip. The other thing is to use the beta 1.3x gzip versions. Decompressing files larger than 4GB seems to give the message. Does anyone know how to overcome this problem in g4u however. I am using the CD version created from the ISO image __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
