Re: Copying files in Linux

I know that this has been up before, but I don't remember the
solution to it. The cp command doesn't seem to be able to
handle files larger than 4 gigabytes. How do I copy a file
that is over 4 gigs?

I believe the problem resides not with "cp" but rather the filesystem types you're copying from/to. If you're trying to copy to a FAT-32 partition, it has a max filesize of 4gb. Other file-systems may/should have much larger limits on individual file sizes.
