Yes, I replied to James Robinson correcting him as follows, but forgot 
to "Reply to all", so originally only he saw it:

No he doesn't!  As he has already stated, he uses Linux which has a 
choice of different possible file systems, and he is only using any form 
of FAT for the boot partition, which in Linux is commonly only a few GB 
containing boot files; for the main OS partitions most probably he's 
using ext4, which is the default for most modern Linux distros that I've 
tried.  Ext4 can handle large files no problem at all:
