Plug list,

Anybody out there know the status of 2TB file system limitations on the x86
platform and the attempts to circumvent this in the 2.4+ kernel?  I know
somebody's working on this, but I'm having a tough time hunting down any
documentation on who is doing what, and where they are.

Also, anyone know if this is a limitation on a 64bit platform (i.e. Sparc)?
I know XFS is still talking about this being a limitation, but I'm not sure
what the implications are on a 64 bit platform.

Thanks for any info!

Jeff B.
