Hello @meera,

I tried the first 2 lessons step by step just a week ago and it worked for me. Please, have a look at this document:



I ran into a similar issue as you describe at the beginning of lesson 2. Right away, I tried the very same fix that worked in the first lesson, however it did not work for lesson 2 for the first time.

I rebooted the virtual machine and I tried to fix the Python version issue with the very same command lines from the earlier again:

Re-entering the repo command lines:

It worked! Please try to reboot your virtual machine, follow the instructions again and let me know if it works for you as well.

Thank you​

If you have look at L2: 00:03:24 section in the previously attached document, you will find the notes about this topic and also about some other issues you may run into:

When trying to download the files with command:
I got the very same error as you do:
The problem was the git port is restricted (https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6285). Fixed this with following command:

today I have been trying the above fix for repo-sync. I directly followed the steps given in "L1-L2 process double checked" page. It still doesnt work, the same "pokyfatal" error I got. Th solution, I found by in net and it is the following. In the openrex-> how to start with software page, in
cat > .repo/local_manifests/imx6openrex.xml << EOF

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<manifest>

<remote fetch="git://github.com/FEDEVEL" name="fedevel"/>

<project remote="fedevel" revision="jethro" name="meta-openrex" path="sources/meta-openrex">

<copyfile src="openrex-setup.sh" dest="openrex-setup.sh"/>

</project>

</manifest>

EOF

instead of using <remote fetch="git://github.com/FEDEVEL" name="fedevel"/>, use <remote fetch="https://github.com/FEDEVEL" name="fedevel"/>,
after that it worked. PFA snapsots (the solvedpoky snapshot).

OK. I have just seen your post, after I posted. I was looking at the https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...kjFXXQXg/edit#. Thank you

This is a query in Lesson 2, at around 4.48 minutes. When you say " your board needs to be similar to the reference board", what it means? I have a situation, where I have two reference boards (board1 & board2), both having cortex-a9 core based processor from 2 different manufacturers. the third board is the board on which I need to port uboot, it has processor from the second board and other hardware from the first board. how should i proceed with developing uboot for the third board. Thanks
