Unable to fetch linux-imx for i.MX7D with Yocto

[ignasisoler]

Hi there,

I'm trying to build a distribution using the Yocto Project, but I'm unable to fetch the linux-imx from the repository.

I'm following the i,MX Yocto Project User's Guide, and trying to build a core-image-minimal. After some tasks, the answer is:

WARNING: linux-imx-4.1.15-r0 do_fetch: Failed to fetch URL git://git.freescale.com/imx/linux-imx.git;protocol=git;branch=imx_4.1.15_2.0.0_ga, attempting MIRRORS if available

Any clue?

Hi Carlos,

thanks for the clue. Finally I've been able to download the yocto from the GIT server and build it. It seems that it was unreachable when I tried.

Now I'm dealing with changes on device tree, u-boot and kernel.

Regards

Ignasi

Hi Ignasi,

Please verify that you have internet connection and you may contact your system administrator because if you are using firewalls or proxy server this may avoid connection.

Besides, for one or the other reason the GIT server is sometimes not reachable, but you still have the option to download the source code from Freescale Public GIT  (http://git.freescale.com/git/) and then build it. If you have the need for various builds based on the same release, then it's useful to download all sources one time and base the following builds then on (a copy of) the local sources:

$ bitbake -c fetchall target

In Yocto Project Development Manual (http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0/dev-manual/dev-manual.html) in chapter 5.15 you find some more information.

Regards,
Carlos
