[NTLUG:Discuss] Output to Multiple Files - Now More

Ok the use of Tee did just what I wanted.  I am now
only one more step away.

Considering I will be writing 20 - 60 gb of data to a
Fat32 filesystem I need to pipe the dd output to Split
to break it into pieces.

I can not seem to get the output after it is split to
pipe into Tee.

Any suggestions?

This is what I am trying

dd if=/dev/sdb |split -b 640m | tee file1 > file2


Thanks

David
