As my problem remains unresolved, I am reposting this message seeking helps. I am exeperiencing the similar problem in kernel 2.4.18, glibc 2.2.5, and patched gcc 2.95.3 (http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/glib-linux-archive/0110/0 007.html). I mounted /dev/hda1 to /. mke2fs /dev/hdc1 aborts with message: File size limit exceeded In exactly the same environment I also booted to kernel 2.2.13 installed from Slackware and then mke2fs /dev/hdc1 without problem. The major changes I have made to linux 2.4.18 are: (1) I patched linux-2.4.18 with win4lin's patch files. (2) I enabled software raid1 for linux 2.4.18 while the 2.2.13 Slackware distribution enables software raid0. I can not mke2fs /dev/hdc1 as what I really want to do is mke2fs /dev/md0 which also failed in 2.4.18. Please help and thank you in advance!
