Who on earth would have a 7GB file (unless it's a disk image).. sheesh.
Anyway.. remember that many OS's and filesystems traditionally define a
file size limit of 2GB.. then it was increased a bit a while back..
possibly to 4GB like you're experiencing. <shrug>
There has to be a limit somewhere, though. 7GB is insane for one file.
