What happens if you try to download a file larger than 50 MB using wget and it
hits the limit? Can you resume it using "wget -c <file>" and continue the
download up to 100 MB? If so, you could just repeat until the whole download is
finished.

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.
