Hi,

I hope the mail list is the right place to ask the simple question about yocto.

I am using meta-riscv[0] to build riscv32 qemu.
And after `$(MACHINE=qemuriscv32 bitbake core-image-full-cmdline)`
Everything is downloaded well but linux-yocto:
```
0: linux-yocto-6.1.14+gitAUTOINC+e8d08fc4c0_b05ca3429c-r0 do_fetch -
12h26m11s (pid 4110422) 28% |####### | 2.00 KiB/s
openembedded-core/meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_6.1.bb
```
I tried many time but nothing change.

There is one mirror[1] I can use under my network condition.
So I want to know what is right way to alter URI in
openembedded-core/meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_6.1.bb?

I googled one article to suggest use Insteadof in .gitconfig[2], is it ok?

Many thanks for your help.

BR,
Bo

When the slow download is happening, can you please check (e.g. from a
process listing), which server specifically is being accessed and with
which command? Just to be sure where the problem is.

Thanks for tips. I downloaded linux-yocto about 3 days but failed and
one night to download it after just sent the mail.

I suspected the accessing to git://git.yoctoproject.org/linux-yocto.git is very slow under my network. So I think there is one way to replace

```
SRC_URI =
"git://git.yoctoproject.org/linux-yocto.git;name=machine;branch=${KBRANCH};
\
git://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-kernel-cache;type=kmeta;name=meta;branch=yocto-6.1;destsuffix=${KMETA}"
```

Or use another bb file to download linux-yocto kernel with mirror I
mentioned. But I am fail to try this.

Anway, Thank you very much!
