[-- Attachment #1 --] Hey guys, I was just reading the intro(2) manpage and saw the following description of EFBIG: | 27 EFBIG File too large. The size of a file exceeded the maximum (about | 2.1E9 bytes). Which is 2 GB. As far as I know, FreeBSD is capable of dealing with files larger than 2 GB. Shouldn't this manpage be updated? The same manpage on NetBSD 2.0 shows the following: | 27 EFBIG File too large. The size of a file exceeded the maximum. (The | system-wide maximum file size is 2**63 bytes. Each file system | may impose a lower limit for files contained within it). Which seems to be correct.
