"Error splicing file: File too large"

[Stephen Ward]

Max. file size	4,294,967,295 bytes (4 GiB – 1) with FAT16B and FAT32[1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table)

I think exFAT is meant to help in cases like this.

Subject: "Error splicing file: File too large"

I made a zip file of 14.1 GB and copied it to a new 16GB usb flash
drive and got this message at about the 99% mark. I didn't know there
was a file size limit and the drive properties showed enough space
beforehand.

Does anyone have a suggestion where I can look for more information
(and a solution?)

2GB RAM, lots of space on /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1 (the flash drive) is
FAT32, is that an issue?

Dave
