Of course , you have to be careful with this one. From 5.3 Release notes: The MSDOSFS_LARGE kernel option has been added to support FAT32 file systems bigger than 128GB. This option is disabled by default. It uses at least 32 bytes of kernel memory for each file on disk; furthermore it is only safe to use in certain controlled situations, such as read-only mount with less than 1 million files and so on. Exporting these large file systems over NFS is not supported. From cvs: date: 2004/07/03 13:22:38; author: tjr; state: Exp; lines: +23 -1 popular request, add a workaround that allows large (128GB or so) FAT32 filesystems to be mounted, subject to some fairly serious limitations. This works by extending the internal pseudo-inode-numbers generated from the file's starting cluster number to 64-bits, then creating a table mapping these into arbitrary 32-bit inode numbers, which can fit in struct dirent's d_fileno and struct vattr's va_fileid fields. The mappings do not persist across unmounts or reboots, so it's not possible to export these filesystems through NFS. The mapping table may grow to be rather large, and may grow large enough to exhaust kernel memory on filesystems with millions of files. Don't enable this option unless you understand the consequences. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
