How do you increase the ULIMIT parameter?  I have tried changing the values
in the mtune file in the configuration directory and rebuilding the kernel,
but this didn't seem to have any effect (yes, I rebooted after rebuilding the
kernel).

Even when I'm root, I cannot create files larger than 4096 blocks [grrr! :^(].

I have Esix Rev. D, if that matters.

Many thanks in advance.
