I've come so far as installing Fedora 19 and having it see all the hard-drives, but it refuses to create any partition bigger than approx. 16 TB with ext4.

this is notting new and Google would tell it easy https://www.google.at/search?q=ext4+16TB

https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto

The code to create file systems bigger than 16 TiB is, at the time of writing this article, not in any stable release of e2fsprogs. It will be in future releases.

Ah, thanks. I previously read about ext4 and that its max limit was in the Exabyte range, but missed the part about the tools...

Let's see if I can't do the custom-thing you link to. Thanks again! -- //Sorin
