Urgh. I’s probably due to the lack of a useful dd analogue that they make users jump through hoops like that. Otherwise my initial reaction before reading the article was ‘just use dd’, but that would be totally foreign territory to most Windows admins most likely. But I agree with Aaron that the other workaround would be to format the USB drive as NTFS to start with, that would not be subject to the 4GB file size restriction. Just how good the NTFS support is in OpenBSD I have no personal experience with, though. All the best, — Peter N. M.
