After downloading 130GB (70B Model), at the end of the process I encountered a problem that I documented

Problem Description: After successfully downloading a large dataset (specifically, the 70B model) from the Meta Llama website, an error occurred during the checksum verification process.

Steps Taken:

Download Process: The download process was initiated following the provided instructions from the llama3 GitHub installation documentation File Retrieval: All files, including the model weights and tokenizer, were successfully downloaded from the provided URL (after request from the official form of Meta). Error Encounter: Upon completion of the download process, an error was encountered during the checksum verification step. Error Details: The error message displayed was:

Connecting to download6.llamameta.net (download6.llamameta.net)|108.157.60.6|:443... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable
The file is already fully retrieved; nothing to do.
Checking checksums
md5sum: checklist.chk: no properly formatted MD5 checksum lines found

Troubleshooting Attempts: Verification of URL: The provided URL was verified to ensure correctness. Retry Attempts: The download process was retried, but the error persisted. Review of Documentation: The documentation and instructions provided by Meta Llama were reviewed for any potential errors or omissions.

Issue Persistence: Despite multiple attempts and verification steps, the error could not be resolved.

Bug Suspicions: The possibility of a bug or technical issue during the installation process is suspected. There may be a problem with installing md5sum or wget (especially md5sum).

For me, this happened when I typed my email address when the prompt "Enter the URL from email: " was shown. You should rather copy and paste the URL that you got from https://llama.meta.com/llama-downloads/.

When the download.sh asks "$ Enter the URL from email: " you should enter the URL that comes with the email or from the webpage you fill the form. Otherwise you got this error.

Sample: $ Enter the URL from email: https://download6.llamameta.net/..........

not

$ Enter the URL from email: username@email_account.extension ...
