There is a 2gb file limit when using the ext2 file system. I've gotten
around this by using the Reiser file system. IIRC it supports 4gb file

Here is a link to the main Reiser site
http://devlinux.com/projects/reiserfs/
Here is a link to a quick and dirty HOWTO
http://kurt.andover.net/Reiser-filesystem-HOWTO.html
I hope that this helps.
