Windows 2000 2 GB file limit

Is it just me, or did J. P. Radley say:

I assume this works by virtue of PFDSK.

However, the above cited text would seem to indicate that you -need-
multiple filesystems.  Is this the case, or can the expanded keys reside on
the same filesystem?  Even TFM doesn't seem to clarify that point, JP.  :)
