ext2 on 2.4.x kernel (rh 7.1/7.2) can handle files bigger than 4gb.
I use mysql with 10gb index files on a similar configuration.
The only problem i've encountered is with perl from the original rpm package
that does not handle such files (mysqlhotcopy is a perl script). Recompiling
perl with largefiles should solve that.
