Despite the nonsense that tcsh reports on limits, I can create files > 4
GB without problems, from tcsh, from the Mandrake Cooker src.rpm--Here,
demonstrated with a 5 GB file:
[root@amanda tmp]# dd if=/dev/zero of=test.img bs=128M count=40
40+0 records in
40+0 records out
[root@amanda tmp]# ls
test.img
[root@amanda tmp]# du -h test.img
5.1G test.img
[root@amanda tmp]# limit -h
cputime 0:0-1
