Traveling with a big file

I'm trying to physically carry a large (4.5GB) iso file from home, over to a
coworker's office. Although I can burn the image back to a DVD, I get an
error that the file is too large when I try a straight copy to the DVD. So,
I hooked up a FIRELITE usb disk, and did a copy to a directory there. I
tried this twice, but each time, after 4GB were copied, I got a file size
error (the file is too large).
Does anyone know if this is a problem with settings on the FIRELITE usb
disk, or somewhere else? I'm using SLES-10, and a "cp" command. I'm also
wondering if I might be better off just making the DVD, and re-converting it
to an ISO file when I get there.
