My experience is with uPort's SV386, but it may apply here.  One possibility
is the kernel patchable variable "Ulimit".  This specifies the maximum size
of a user writable file in 512 byte blocks.  In SV386 the default is 16k,
giving an 8meg file.  The default may have been set lower in SV/AT.  I find
it interesting that your limit is the same size as the floppy disk . . .
