Binary package hint: zip
zip (and presumably unzip though I didn't check) should have "large file support" compiled in for Dapper. If this was not "LTS" I'd say forget it and upgrade to Edgy (which I did not test), but for "LTS" that's not a good answer. Tested on a fully up-to-date Dapper install (broken) and more or less up-to-date RHEL/CentOS-4.4 (older (Red Hat) zip worked).
To reproduce, create 5 0.5G files and try to zip them, which will fail, then try to tar them, which will work, thus showing that the file system is OK and that at least some programs work right.
