Dumb question #1.1, Have you set your ulimit. The system comes
with it set to 2400 blocks. You can temporarly set it as root
or can use 'patch /system5 ulpatch xxxxx' to set it permently.
Remember that you will have to re-boot for this to take effect.
I havn't tried to copy a file the size that you are trying but
have done several at half that size.
