Copying too big file to USB flashdrive
Asked by
Rauno
Ubuntu, like Windows, should alert me before copying starts that a 6 GB file will not fit on a FAT32 file system.
Ubuntu will instead copy just over 4 GB of it and only then gives a pretty random error that I have to google.
It's especially annoying with a slow flashdrive - you wait forever and then see that error, start all over again.
