problem with installing android source

Hi, all:
according http://source.android.com/download
I have installed Ubuntu Linux (i386) and Installed Repo successfully.
After Initializing a Repo client, type repo sync, it will show:
frank@frank-laptop:~/mydroid$ repo sync
fatal: Unable to look up android.git.kernel.org (port 9418) (Name or service not known)
error: Cannot fetch platform/build
When try to initializing repo client, it will show:
frank@frank-laptop:~/mydroid$ repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git
git checkout: branch default already exists
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/home/frank/mydroid/.repo/repo/main.py”, line 202, in
_Main(sys.argv[1:])
File “/home/frank/mydroid/.repo/repo/main.py”, line 186, in _Main
repo._Run(argv)
File “/home/frank/mydroid/.repo/repo/main.py”, line 96, in _Run

m.StartBranch(‘default’)
File “/home/frank/mydroid/.repo/repo/project.py”, line 777, in StartBranch
raise GitError('%s checkout %s ’ % (self.name, rev))
error.GitError: manifests checkout refs/remotes/origin/master
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot in advance.

i meet the same problem, and still struggle on it

Hi, webber:

It is kind of networking problem which the networking connection is not

very good at the moment.

You can repeat the command and finally you can fetch the source.
