598429 2007-10-06 00:10:00 Ok, I am downloading the latest version of opensuse

using getright it has stopped at 97% and keeps telling me that



Error saving to file:
G:\openSuseblabla.iso.GetRight

It is likely the disk just filled up-- unless a CD (or other removeable disk) where GetRight was saving the file was just removed
Stopped Download


The size of the download is over 4 Gb and I have around 10Gb spare on that drive at this point

I am going to say my filesystem is fat32 AND I AM NOT SURE IF THIS HAS A BEARING BUt the files has stopped at size 4096Mbs which is one of those magical numbers in file systems

(sorry about the caps, i swear the keyboard is shrinking)

Any help would be appreciated

-------Dammit I just clicked fat32 has a file size limit of 4gb, argh how did I not put those 2 together, any workaround?

There could be other options though... just so that you don't take my words as gospel :)
