This is NOT a dd problem. I have been trying to write large files to a vfat
filesystem. This is definitely a bug with the kernel. I have had the seg
fault. Try running the program again, but look at your console. It think
that it will result in a kernel bug statement.I think that mine said it was
in File.c:89 .

P.S. I was trying to capture atm data on the partition. The code I am using
works great with an ext2fs partition, but the vfat dies at exactly the same
place.
