Re: Max. file size for msdos partition

Thanks, A month or so ago I asked a similar question only I was having difficulty just reading a file 2GB on a NTFS partition. Which brings me to my question is there a file system that can store files greater than 2GB and that can be read from and written to in both windows 2k/xp and FreeBSD?

Max. file size for msdos partition
How large a file can I create on a FAT32 msdos partition with FreeBSD Stable? I would have expected to be able to create a 4GB-2 file, but seem to be limited to 2GB-1.
