I have recently installed amanda 2.4.2p2 and I discovered that it no 
longer supports "negative chunksize" parameter, which I used to direct big 
dumps (some 10G+ filesystems) to tape directly. Now, when I try to du 
level 0 dump of such a filesystem, it gives me an error: "data write: File 
too large". 
What could be a solution of this problem? I don't really want to split 
these filesystems in parts - they have a lot of subdirs, and it's a pain 
to maintain the up-to-date list. Is there a way to make dump go directly 
on tape as before? Or does my problem lie in something else? (BTW, the 
tape should be enough to keep the dumps - it's 35M tape, and I did 
successfull level 0 dump on it with older amanda version). 

TIA for any help,
