Note
Linux Kernel Limits
Table 18.2 on the page before describes the limitations regarding
the on-disk format. The 2.6 kernel imposes its own limits on the
size of files and file systems handled by it. These are as follows:
File Size On 32-bit systems, files may not exceed the size of 2 TB (2
41
bytes).
File System Size File systems may be up to 2
73
bytes large. However,
this limit is still out of reach for the currently available hardware.
Note
