Hi,
I tried to download the VMWare image, and found out that it's not possible to interrupt and resume downloading.
From the interaction with the server, it looks like nginx is not respecting the Range: request correctly, even if it declares in the initial response that it supports it. In other words, the server replies with 200 (instead of 206) to the partial download request.
Maybe this is intended ?
