Bug Description

We get periodic failures when the master image tries to download and write the test image to disk. The operation looks like:

 wget --connect-timeout=30 -nv -O- http://192.168.1.10/images/tmp/tmpeodlvm/system.tar.bz2 |tar --numeric-owner -C /mnt/lava -xjf -

The way this command is built out its hard to understand where the failure occurred. We might be able to help this a bit by:

 1) removing the "-nv" option to wget (will make it more verbose)
 2) add something like "--checkpoint=1000" to tar

The change is trivial, I'm running a job locally to test it and will paste the output here when it's done.

Except that my sd card has fallen to bits (physically!) so I'm going to have to make a new master image before I can test it... in the mean time if someone wants to test the linked branch, that'd be grand...

And I don't have a big enough card :/ Can someone test this for me?
