Hi WanMil,
i described the way to produce the germany+iceland.osm.pbf in this post:
http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2012q4/015462.html

I tried again using dataset from today with following parameters:

Splitter call:
start /low /b /wait java -Xmx1348m -jar ..\bin\splitter.jar
--max-threads=2 --keep-complete --overlap=0 --output=pbf
--max-areas=256 --mapid=66%FID%001 --max-nodes=1200000

mkgmap call:

The mkgmpap message is as follows:
There is not enough room in a single garmin map for all the input data
   The .osm file should be split into smaller pieces first.

That's all, no further details and mkgmap continues with the other tiles.
The defective tile with size 0 is 66923055.osm.pbf
