Well, it seems tar can not handle 4.7Gb files any way. I'm not sure why
but it seems happy with 2.2Gb files. Anybody know about the upper limits
on tar?
Maybe it is more a problem of the specific fs, where you try to create
it. If there the blocksize is to small (1024) then there is your
problem.
What does dumpe2fs -h says about the blocksize of the specific device?

I do remember it was something to do with a block. I'll create another
one and get the exact error. I use reiserfs on all my partitions except
/boot. According to mount, it uses udf for the DVD. Info you wanted
about the partition where it was being untarred:
