    13GDAL supports reading and writing large files (> 2GiB) if it is possible in your operating system. Notes about large file support on Linux available here: http://www.suse.de/~aj/linux_lfs.html . In short: if you have kernel 2.4.x and glibc 2.2.x you are in luck. Maximum file size depends on cluster size. For ext2 filesystem with 1 KiB clusters it is 16448 MiB, for ext2 with 4 KiB clusters it is 2048 GiB. Other filesystems can handle even larger files.
