EDIT:

apologies, the faq was referring to fat32; for dvd purpose. still will check why it didn't fit using PLD.

From http://batleth.sapienti-sat.org/projects/FAQs/ext3-faq.html:
Quote

Q: What is the largest possible size of an ext3 filesystem and of files on ext3?

inspired by Andreas Dilger, suggested by Christian Kujau:

Ext3 can support files up to 1TB. With a 2.4 kernel the filesystem size is limited by the maximal block device size, which is 2TB. In 2.6 the maximum (32-bit CPU) limit is of block devices is 16TB, but ext3 supports only up to 4TB.

You can enable big files in wxGTK but it is enabled in wxGTK 2.6 per default. I don't know how 2.4 behaves and what they mean with big files.
