Of course if you're only thinking about forking Wikipedia, rather than Commons, you can just use InstantCommons [1]. For English Wikipedia you'd still have a lot of fair use to copy, but German and many other languages wouldn't have that problem.
That said, there really ought to be an image dump available too.

I think we want to investigate forking commons too.
If any of you fine folks could use a vps, what specs do you need? I prolly have a little space to make one. :-) Debian ok for starters?
I'm not sure forking is a good idea right here, right now, but it's always useful to check that failing to an external backup is still tractable.
