building android-x86 from sourceforge and repo tool is now on code.google.com

September 27, 2011 in Uncategorized

Due to the current outage of android.git.kernel.org, and the fact that
Google Project Hosting now supports Git, the repo tool is now
available from its code.google.com repository:

http://code.google.com/p/git-repo/

The launcher script is also available as a download:

http://code.google.com/p/git-repo/downloads/detail?name=repo-1.14

So to build android-x86 from sourceforge

wget http://git-repo.googlecode.com/files/repo-1.14
chmod +x repo-1.14
./repo-1.14 init -u git://android-x86.git.sf.net/gitroot/android-x86/manifest.git -b gingerbread-x86

move repo to /usr/bin

sudo mv repo-1.14 /usr/bin/repo

and then sync and build as usual
