[Bug 70535] Re: Nautilus copy to USB hard drive crashed

[wild.ideas]

Aha!  This is *not* a 'cp' or Nautilus bug, per se -- I think this is a
problem with this USB hard drive.  Now the question is, is it a
particular idiosyncrasy with this external drive, or is it a fundamental
limitation of USB technology?  (If the latter, then Nautilus --and
'cp'?-- would be improved by refusing any attempts to transfer files >=
4GB to a USB device, perhaps suggesting that the file be split first.)
