Large File Transfer

Earlier i posted to ask how can i format using SL upgrade disk.

I came across a problem. I have a work .ISO image which is about 9 GB and i tried copying that to my External HD with 20GB free Disc space. I am not able to copy it. I tried searching for a program which will make it into an archive and split it (like WinRAR in PC) but wasn't successful . Any help?

Well you can use split and concat for Mac.

If your external HDD is formatted with the FAT32 filesystem it won't accept files bigger than 4GB.

if i format the drive to NTFS, will it work with SL?

You need MacFuse and NTFS+3G to be able to write to NTFS formatted drives, reading is no problem with Mac OS X.
