As we've been playing with Broadcast 2000 on SuSE 7.0 over the weekend, we discovered we needed to make files over 2Gb in size. We couldn't get this going.
So it seems like bcast2k is not LFS ready yet.
same is true with gramofile. After I removed the standard 100 min limit, it ceised after 3h 14 min or 2GB. ;-( Juergen
We'd upgraded to kernel 2.4.2 already, but apparently it also needs a glibc 2.2 built against kernel 2.4, and that proved beyond us (we ended up nuking the machine after trying to install a Red Hat glibc2.2.x - not my idea, but we ended up doing that when glibc2.2.2, the current release, can't be compiled by gcc 2.95.2 - again the current release and the one in suse 7.0)
So, any more information on how it can be done and - importantly, as mine should be arriving imminently - does SuSE 7.1 handle large files out of the box?
The base system does. However, the apps need to support is as well, and we are busy working on enabling LFS on as much applications as possible. But I fear, that bcast2k has not been fixed yet...
Also have a look at Andreas Jaeger's LFS page:
