Rasperry Pi bcm2835-bootfiles-20140221-r3 do_fetch

[Kashyap Gada]

Hello,
The following do_fetch of bcm28353-bootfiles-20140221-r3 is taking
considerable amount of time. I have kept system monitor applcation on on my
ubuntu workstation which shows download at about 114KBps.

I want to know if this do_fetch task is interrupted and bitbake is stopped
as I have to close down my office, will bitbaking the next time i start the
process continue download from where I stopped or will start fetching for
the package from 0 again.


Also can it be downloaded separately, if yes where can I find the link to
it and where do i have to store it once its downloaded.

This is going to take a while as it's around 3GB packed.

If you set BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS ?= "1" in your local.conf you'll
find the packed tarball in your downloads directory once the fetch completes.

You can download the tarballs from my website http://www.mlbassoc.com/poky
These are from the latest build which I made on 2014-06-13.  Just put them
in your downloads directory (or mirror).  Don't forget to create the 'done'
stamp when you've downloaded it, e.g.
   % touch downloads/git2_github.com.raspberrypi.firmware.git.tar.gz.done

Good luck - If you have troubles, try the mailing list again as
I'll be away on holiday.

Thanks for your reply, but you missed out on the do_fetch restarting issue.
