Apparantly Matti Aarnio has written a kernel patch which achieves
the above, thus allowing a person to read from and write to a file above 2Gb
on an x86. The only location I could find referenced for the patch was
ftp://mea.tml.tele.fi/linux/LFS/ which unfortunetly I can't access. Has
anybody here tried it or similar patches. Again with the bedamnable signed
integers and 31 bit offset and whathaveyou ! Need to be throwing really BIG
files about the place between boxen.
If you have gotten something like this working, on what kernel --
I'm currently in the process of grabbing 2.2.17 and whacking it in ?? Oh
yeah and does 7.0 already have this supported ?
Thanks,
steve
