Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When I download a large model via WiFi, sometimes the connection drops and this leads to a complete restart of the download.

Describe the solution you'd like
If the connection is dropped and the download needs to restart, it should continue to download at the point where it stopped, instead of a complete restart.

Describe alternatives you've considered
When you use an external ollama instance you can simply recover interrupted downloads by restarting them at the point where the connection was lost. This is not possible with the integrated ollama instance.

Additional context
I’m using Alpaca on openSUSE tumbleweed as flatpak

Something similar happens, but the connection is stable. I can't download these unlucky 20 GB. For example, it downloads up to 18%, then suddenly drops back down to 13%. It feels like you're climbing a hill only to slide back down again. In previous versions, I didn't notice this issue even though I was downloading smaller models.
