Wow how big is the file that it did that?!
Are you absolutely sure you didn't actually move the drop down menu & select raw instead of psd?

Photoshop has limits when it comes to print but it should be able to handle a pretty large file. I'm curious how you reached its limit! Do you really need to make the entire thing in photoshop? ie, if its a sign for the side of a truck are there elements that can be done in AI or a vector based program? If you are trying to make text 5 metres wide in photoshop its a really messy way to try that ... you need a vector program that isn't trying to render millions of pixels every time you move something.
