Hmmm I didn't know that Gentoo kernels have LFS enabled by default. Ah well I havn't run a Gentoo server for awhile :) The really important thing is, nobody should let their log files grow to that size :)

Unless you have a custom kernel and/or 64bit arch, you cannot have a single file larger than 2GB, even with reiserfs.

Hi
I'm running a vanilla 2.4.28 kernel with ext3 on my main bbgen server (Gentoo Linux x86) :
$ uname -a
Linux cronos 2.4.28 #2 SMP ven jan 14 14:12:01 CET 2005 i686 Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
and files > 2 Gb are handled well :
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=foo bs=1024 count=2049k
2098176+0 enregistrements lus.
