Since the file is more than 50MB, it terminates the download at the very beginning. If the file is less than 50MB only, it gets downloaded. > BTW, if you have the corresponding F15 DVD, I've posted delta ISOs from 15 to 16 > at > > http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/deltaisos/16-Final/From_15-Final/ > > which are about 42% of the full F16 DVD ISO size. > > Thanks.
