File and partition sizes

[Iwan Sanders]

Hi,

I am examining the large file support in Linux. A couple of questions 
remained unanswered that's why I thought to
ask the experts ;-)

I was wondering what the current size limitation of a partition is and 
what kernel versions will allow files larger then
4 GB and why they do that.

Regards,

Iwan Sanders
