Hi  
Not trying to download to a FAT type partition?

What method and operating system are you using to download? I always  
use wget with the -c option, then if the connection fails you can  
re-commence from where things left off…

Hi  
Try wget, what filesystem is it being downloaded to…?

I wonder if it’s a faulty mirror in your locale, let me ask my SUSE  
contacts.
