How large did you make the hard disk? At least 300GB ? Which instructions are you following (ie which build spec?)

[steve.payne]

we used the 200gig OVA and gave it 200gig harddisk

these instructions

fixed it now,   we hit the 4gig limit for IE

used chrome and it uploads the 8 gig file and it's building now

You linked the 2.3 admin guide. There is an updated disk requirement table in the 2.6 admin guide. 

As Arne hinted to above, with 2.6 the reccomendation for any dedicated psn production node is at least 300 GB disk. If you're leveraging pan or mnt personas then the reccomendation is 600GB+.

This is of course not the issue you ran in to that you sorted out, but this will help avoid issues if you're building a production deployment.
