At first glance, I suggest checking and/or compiling support for large files into your kernel.
You don't state what kernel or distribution you are using, but I don't think support for files over 2GB is built into the kernel by default.
Try going to your kernel source directory and running make xconfig or make menuconfig from a terminal, and look under filesystems to see.
