I just purchased a 3TB disk -- my first of that size.
I'm trying to partition it. I want one huge ext4 filesystem. But fdisk
(and cfdisk) keep telling me that I can't create a partition larger than
2TB.
Install "parted" and read the man page for the "mklabel" command with
the "gpt" label-type. I believe I used that to create one large
partition on my 3 TB drive.
