[GRASS-user] file size limit exceeded

[Martin Wegmann]

Hello, 

I tried to import a 500 MB DEM using GRASS 6.2 (Debian rep):

#1
r.in.gdal -o -k -e 
input=/data2/raster/dem/srtm90_africa_continental_JF/SRTM90_WA_v3/SRTM90_WA_v3/hdr.adf 
output=test
Over-riding projection check.
Proceeding with import...
WARNING: map [test] - unable to write row 14319
File size limit exceeded
[Raster MASK present]

#2
did it without -e and previously zoomed into the mapset and set the region to 
fit this extend using gis.m functionality (not CLI)

same error message


#3 
I found related error messages in the ML hence I installed grass62 and 63 with 
LFS but I have some problems compiling with gdal support (another e-mail on 
gda-dev)


any idea how I can solve this file size limit problem while not yet being able 
to compile 62/63?

regards, Martin
