I want to create only one linux partition on a raid 5 array (3.5 TB).
I could not do that with fdisk in fedora 5. I read the net and found
out about 2TB size limit.
You can't have an ext3 filesystem that's larger than 2T.
The max size for a ext3 file system is 32TB if you use 8kB block sizes.
I have several systems with ext3 file systems larger than 4TB.

The confusion about those values is, kernel 2.4 didn't handled
more then 2TB block devices, no matter what FS. This limit has
been removed with kernel 2.6.
