Huge Partition

The testing I started yesterday afternoon completed, and I'm sorry to say
the result is a failure.
Although parted created a 2TB partition as verified by fdisk, only 1TB is
useable. I wrote 1001 files of just slightly under 1G each when the script
failed for out of disk space. The script simply used the cp command to copy
a single master file to FILE.XXXX where XXXX is an increasing number.
I tried googling for disk space limits, but got too many bogus hits to be of
value.
Does anyone know what the "official" disk space limits are?
Does anyone know what I need to do to get a single partition of greater than
1TB?
I have a test platform with 2TB of physical disk if someone can point me in
the right direction to recompile whatever.
Martin:
If you have a 2TB partition, have you tested it for availability beyond 1TB?
