I am trying to download the german "old"
table on:
http://download.wikimedia.org/#wikipedia
The link says that the size of that file is 13.97 GiB.
Howver, the file is just 2GB (definatelly) and there
are no aditional
files like described on the wikipedia download help page.
are you sure the program you are using to download it supports large files?
