Hi,
I see that I have a quite old 2.4.26 version of the Linux kernel on
this computer on which I don't run Linux very often. Are you saying
that the problem with large files has been fixed in 2.6?
Regards,

Do you use a recent version of linux kernel?
I have seen message on linux-kernel in 2002 describing exactly your
problem, but I believe it has been fixed long ago.
What
cat /proc/version
on your system reports?
