IIRC, 32 GB is the limit of vfat (which uefi uses for boot). I can't think
of any other limitation here. As already stated, ext2 is 2 TB. Old bios
needed the initial kernel in the first few sectors - basically, for lots of
these reasons, make boot a different partition (shouldn't need more than a
gig.
