wait a minute, what i wrote above can't be right, i have a wiki page for this: http://www.crashcourse.ca/wiki/index.php/Building_basic_RPi_image which shows my recipe mods to look like: -SRC_URI = "git://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git;protocol=git;branch=rpi-3.2.27 \ +SRC_URI = "git:///home/rpjday/oe/dist/t/linux;protocol=file;branch=rpi-3.2.27 \ not sure where i got the earlier stuff i posted. > I think the fetcher archives up the retrieved git repo into a > .tar.gz doesn't it in the downloads directory? Would it not help if > those tarballs were mirrored so the fetcher could fall back on the > mirror? my setup always creates tarballs from whatever is fetched so, once that's done, i always end up using local tarballs. i have a wiki page which explains how to create your own local mirror of tarballs: http://www.crashcourse.ca/wiki/index.php/OE_Creating_your_%22own_mirror%22 rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
