Problem in cloning mtd git

Problem in cloning mtd git

[vimal singh]

I cloned Linus' official kernel tree. And then tried cloning mtd git
as mentioned at http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/source.html

I am see below error:

$ git clone --reference linux-2.6 git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6.git mtd-2.6
warning: templates not found /home_lbp/share/git-core/templates/
Initialized empty Git repository in /home2/vimal/mtd-2.6/.git/
fatal: Unable to look up git.infradead.org (port 9418) (Temporary
failure in name resolution)
fetch-pack from 'git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6.git' failed.

Any help regarding this is welcome...

Alternatively, you can add the MTD stuff as a remote to your existing
repository:

% cd linux-2.6
% git remote add mtd git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6.git
% git remote update

and you should have the mtd branches under mtd/:

% git branch -a
% git checkout mtd/master

Local DNS problem?  Try 18.85.46.34 instead of git.infradead.org.
