Hi, I have a dual boot configuration with Windows and Linux. So, I have a NTFS \
Windows XP partition, a ReiserFS Linux partition and a FAT32 partition to share data. \
The problem is that Linux partition is not big enough to have a distribution and \
still, to have 5GB of free space. I have it in the FAT32 partition that has only \
shared data and some games (from Windows since they don't fit in the NTFS partition). \
 The problem is that FAT32 partitions does not support files bigger than 4GB so all \
the burning applications in Windows have the option to split images bigger than 4GB \
so they can be holded in a FAT32 partition. At the moment, every time I have to copy \
a DVD I have to use Windows because k3b can't split files. It would be great for \
people with dual boot configuration to have such an option. I don't think I'm the \
only person with that problem. Most people with dual boot have a partition to share \
data and it's a shame we can not copy dvds in Linux due to that. Thanks for your \
atention. Regards.
