In the sources/downloads dir remove the dirs with 'kernel.org' in them in the git2/ subdir (sources/downloads/git2/*kernel.org*). Now I'm very confused. I deleted everything (files and directories) at /git2 referencing kernel.org. Performed a: bitbake -c cleanall virtual/kernel and restarted... bitbake cloud9-gnome-image 20 minutes after the kernel fetch started there was still very very little network traffic. (Even though parallel make was set to 8, the kernel mainline fetch was the only task scheduled. I guess all other steps were now dependent on it.) So I interrupted the bitbake, and repeated the above rm and cleanall commands. I then changed the kernel recipe to access Google's kernel mirror rather than the main kernel.org repository. I got the same results... very very little network traffic. So I created a fresh Angstrom directory (starting with cloning the Angstrom setup scripts) and performed... bitbake virtual/kernel Everything worked fine until the kernel mainline fetch started, eventually it became the only task running. Still there was very very little network traffic. The fetch eventually timed out "unable to fetch url from any source". I tried a manual git clone of the kernel (copying the src repository url from the recipe) and the kernel clone progresses smoothly. I don't know why fetching the kernel during bitbake doesn't work and cloning it manually does. But, I have been stuck on this problem too long and since I plan to do some kernel driver development, I should have a local kernel repository anyway, I will proceed to modify the kernel recipe to access the manually cloned kernel repository. One thing that would help in the future would be to better document the steps "do_fetch" goes through and provide a debug or trace option to find out what it's doing when it appears to be hung. the -v and -DDD flags produced no additional information once the "do_fetch" task started. Internet searches produced many instances of bitbake "do_fetch" of known working recipes hanging, but the only solution seemed to be try again or create a local repository.
