Summary: huge /var/log/lastlog in image

Initial Comment:
I've seen this problem before with smaller file sizes but 
this time it's really bad. In a freshly created image 
(RHEL3 u5 x86_64) the setup RPM generates the 
file /var/log/lastlog with the length of 
1254130450140 bytes.The file is full of zeros and 
probably sparse. 
 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# 
ll /var/lib/systemimager/images/rhel3/var/log/lastlog 
-r--------    1 root     root     1254130450140 Aug 22 
17:38 /var/lib/systemimager/images/rhel3/var/log/lastlog 
 
When deploying such an image the rsync seems to get 
stuck when transfering the lastlog file. 
 
Workaround: before installing the image one should 
create a zero length lastlog file. 
 
This should either be handled automatically or be 
nodeted somewhere in the docu.

We've hit this at oak ridge on centos 4.1 x86_64, with a
1.2T file size. Need to fix this in the image as per
conference call.
