Maybe this is a precaution on wget's part wherein it always assume that
the user uses the ext2 fs :)

This is addressed in the FC3 release notes:
"If you intend to download the Fedora Core 3 DVD ISO image, keep in mind
that not all file downloading tools can accommodate files larger than 2GB
in size. For example, wget will exit with a File size limit exceeded
error.
"The curl and ncftpget file downloading tools do not have this limitation,
and can successfully download files larger than 2GB."
