Hello!
I've used split util to devide a 220G file into files of 1G size. I've used
option '-d' like shown below.
*split* -b 1G -d big-file.zip big-file.zip.part_
After part number 89 I've got part number 9000 and it goes with 9001, 9002,
9003 etc. next.
This is unexpected.
It's done like this to aid recombination with shell sorting.
You can get a sequential set of numbers by using an appropriately large -a
option.
